  Research Interest

  Hedgehog signaling has been implicated in the induction or maintenance of up to 25% of human tumors and a variety of birth defects. Our lab studies Sonic hedgehog (Shh) signaling in normal hair follicle development and in the pathogenesis of the most common human tumor, basal cell carcinoma (BCCs) of the skin. We are interested in how the local stromal environment regulates hedgehog signaling and hair follicle or tumor growth and invasion and developing novel targets for therapy.
