We are a new lab working on cancer genome evolution, chromosome biology, and therapy resistance. We are always looking for curious and motivated students/postdocs to join.
Our lab studies how catastrophic numerical and structural chromosome aberrations are formed in cancer. Such chromosome defects are found in the majority of human tumors and are strong drivers of cancer initiation, growth, metastasis, and therapy resistance. By understanding the underlying mechanisms of chromosome alterations, we aim to identify targetable vulnerabilities to be used for novel therapy design.
