Research Scientist, Birmingham VA Health Care System | Professor, Department of Pathology, University of Alabama at Birmingham
I have been contributing to the field of cancer progression and metastasis for the last 20 years. My laboratory specializes in identifying and understanding unique molecular changes that
influence metastatic progression of solid tumors. Specifically, our work focuses on impacts of developmental signaling and stress factors such on breast cancer progression. We routinely
utilize xenograft and Genetically Engineered Mouse (GEM) models for pathologic and pre-clinical evaluation. We aim to functionally and mechanistically define and pre-clinically validate
novel drug targets with a larger goal of developing new treatment options for metastatic disease.
