I am interested in molecular mechanisms of tumorigenesis, especially regarding how signalling pathways regulate cell viability, proliferation and invasion, using a combination of biochemical approaches and studies in human cancer cell lines. My group also uses genetically modified mouse models that allow the inactivation of particular proteins in a regulated and tissue-specific manner to investigate tumor formation in vivo.
