Biography
My laboratory is focusing on understanding the pathogenesis of urologic tumors including renal cell carcinoma and prostate cancer using an integrated genomic, quantitative proteomic, transcriptomic and miRNA approach with extensive bioinformatics analysis, for the purpose of biomarker discovery, understanding mechanisms of drug resistance, and the development of new targeted therapy.
Funded Projects
Analyzing Renal Papillary adenomas to elucidate the early tumorigenic events of Papillary Renal Cell Carcinoma and their possible correlation with kidney progenitor cells »Dissecting Papillary Renal Cell Carcinoma on the Molecular Level: Subtype Analysis, Biomarker Discovery and Implications to Therapy »
