Research Interests

Although I do not have an active lab at 小优视频, I am passionate about furthering basic science research鈥攅specially the field of cancer biology. I love passing this fervor onto 小优视频 students in various courses. I am particularly interested in the loss of tumor suppressor proteins during cellular transformation, but I also enjoy understanding and teaching about the molecular basis of normal physiology including pregnancy.
