Research

I joined the Cancer Genetics Laboratory in Professor Parry Guilford team in September 2019. I am working on the development of chemoprevention and/or treatment for hereditary and sporadic diffuse gastric cancer, specifically cancer lacking E-cadherin expression. I am particularly focused on the impact of HDAC inhibitors on gastric and mammary cancer carrying CDH1 mutation, using 2D cellular culture and organoids.
