Research Bio
My research focuses on mechanisms of therapeutic resistance in cancer in general and in bone cancer, in particular. One such mechanism is suppression of programmed cell death or apoptosis. We are studying 1) signaling pathways, such as NF-kB, leading to prevalence of anti-apoptotic factors; and 2) processes leading to specific glycolytic phenotype found in cancer cells.
