Expertise

Breast Cancer
Clinical management of patients with breast cancer and investigation/development of novel therapeutics.

Neuro-Oncology
Direct care for and directing clinical trials of novel therapeutics in patients with primary CNS malignancies

Tumor Biology
My doctoral thesis focused on the role of the cyclin dependent kinase inhibitor p16INK4a in mammary tumorigenesis and immortilization. My current interests have transitioned from cell cycle to the effect of hypoxia on chemokines and escape from antiangiogenics and the role of obesity in promoting breast tumorigenesis.
