Cancer & Physical Sciences Members
The Cancer & Physical Sciences Program unites fundamental chemistry, physical sciences and bioengineering groups that focus on developing cancer-relevant therapeutic and diagnostic agents using nano-scale materials and physical sciences approaches.
Hersam, Mark
Professor
Bio
The Hersam Laboratory specializes in the processing, characterization, and application of nanoelectronic materials including silicon, carbon nanotubes, graphene, transition metal dichalcogenides, blac... [more]
Hoffman, Brian
Professor
Bio
We determine the catalytic mechanisms of metalloenzymes through the development and implementation of electron-nuclear double resonance (ENDOR) spectroscopy, a combination of NMR and EPR.ÂÂ
Horvath, Curt
Professor
Bio
My laboratory focuses on the molecular events controlling inducible gene regulation, with focus on the production of and response to cytokines and especially interferon and IFN-JAKSTAT signal transdu... [more]
Jin, Jing
Assistant Professor
Bio
Our research focuses on the synthetic design of recombinant fusion proteins for biotherapeutic, diagnostic, and disease modeling purposes. One of the general themes of our designs is to achieve target... [more]
Joester, Derk
Associate Professor
Bio
My research has been focused on understanding the mechanisms by which cells grow crystals; both in cell culture (see section C.2), and in cell-free, in vitro model systems (section C.3). An integral p... [more]
Kamat, Neha
Associate Professor
Bio
We study the role of membrane biophysical properties in membrane protein folding and function and how these features can be manipulated in cells and lipid nanoparticles to design cancer therapies. We ... [more]
Kath, William
Professor
Bio
I am an applied mathematician who has worked for a number of years in the field of computational neuroscience, creating detailed computational models of dynamical activity in neurons and neuronal circ... [more]

Natural Products Discovery and Biosynthesis, Top Down Mass Spectrometry, and Epiproteomics.
Kelley, Shana
Professor
Bio
Our research group works at the interface of Chemistry, Biology, Engineering and Medicine to develop new technologies for therapeutic discovery and development as well as new diagnostic approaches. U... [more]
Kim, Dong-Hyun
Associate Professor
Bio
My research has been focused on therapeutic nano-carriers for treatment of various types of cancer. Nanoparticles and their hybrid derivatives have been exploited as vectors for drug delivery, therape... [more]
