Cancer Research Interest

Disease Site Focus: Prostate, Gynecology
Research Focus Area: Carcinogenesis, Diagnosis/ Prognosis, Informatics
Type of Research: Basic
Research Keywords: Prostate, stem cells,cancer, heavy metals, bisphenol
Research Interest Statement: My main interest is to investigate how components within the tumor microenvironment contribute to cancer resistance, as well as identify how cancer stem cells (CSCs) participate in disease progression, Explore the molecular mechanisms associated with CSCs and develop new strategies against this cell subtype.
