Research InterestMy current research interests are to study the biology of breast cancer stem cells (CSCs) and the functional role of genes involved in CSCs proliferation and self-renewal. Since CSCs are believed to be responsible for recurrent and metastatic breast cancer, the ultimate goal is to develope targeted therapies to specifically kill the CSCs subpopulation. Identification of genes involved in CSCs functions may lead to novel CSC targeted therapy.

Research InterestWhilst cancer is first a disease of unregulated cell proliferation, a small proportion of cells within a tumour are paradoxically in a relative state of quiescence. These chemotherapy-resistant cells are the likely culprits responsible for relapse but the signalling events that control this state are unknown. By studying purified populations of cancer stem cells derived from patients with acute myeloid leukemia my work is focused on defining novel targets for future therapy.
