Advancing epithelial cancer research

Our Research Focus

Using our unique human cell transformation system, we are trying to 1) Understand human cancer initiation, progression and evolution, 2) Investigate the pathogenesis of prostate and other epithelial cancers, and 3) Identify oncogenic drivers for targeted therapy.
