Systems approaches to studying cancer metastasis and gene regulation
Our laboratory focuses on defining the underlying mechanisms that promote tumor progression and metastasis.
We take a systems biology approach investigating metabolic pathways, genetic and epigenetic regulation, and immune evasion mechanisms that selectively sustain the growth and progression of metastatic tumors.
Our research is supported by grants from the National Institutes of Health, the National Cancer Institute, the Susan G. Komen Foundation, and the Roswell Park Alliance Foundation.

Graduate Student Tao Dai Earns Prestigious Breast Cancer Predoctoral Fellowship
His project for the Breast Cancer Research Initiative examines how the PFKFB4 enzyme prevents immune cells from attacking breast tumors, and how the enzyme increases the motility of TNBC cells, allowing them to spread to different organs.
