Current research:
My research involves utilizing in vivo CRISPR methodology in mouse models of Head and Neck Cancer (HNSCC) and investigate oncological mechanisms that drive the HNSCC with the ultimate goal of developing novel drug targets to treat this deadly cancer.
Projects:
- Establishing HNSCC mouse models of novel tumor suppressors
- Investigating drug targets from GPCR superfamily using in vivo CRISPR screening in HNSCC mouse models
- Utilizing patient-derived xenograft models to study drug targets and oncological mechanisms in HNSCC
