Research InterestWe have used comprehensive gene expression profiling for 2 translational research objectives: 1) to understand the mechanisms of action of candidate prostate cancer preventive agents and develop biomarkers that we can use to evaluate response; and 2) to identify diagnostic and prognostic markers for prostate, kidney, testicular and bladder cancers.

Research InterestDr Chung is interested in developing new technologies in the treatment of both prostate and kidney cancer. He is studying the efficacy of minimally invasive laparoscopic techniques for kidney tumors, including cryotherapy, and in developing robotic and laparoscopic novel therapies in the treatment of prostate cancer. Dr Chung is also interested in the novel imaging modalities to improve the detection rate of kidney cancer.

Research InterestMy laboratory is focused on studying the role of DNA methylation in prostate and bladder cancer. Certain genes and their downstream targets may be useful molecular markers for disease detection and prognostication. We are interested in utilizing methylation markers to detect abnormal changes in serum and urine. Clinical Focus: Prostate Cancer - Robotic Prostatectomy; Bladder Cancer - Robotic Cystectomy; Urologic Oncology - Prostate, Bladder, Kidney, Testicular Cancer.
