Cancer-Focused Research
My research focuses on identifying risk factors and molecular biomarkers that may predict cancer risk, progression, and mortality, thus providing potential tools for early cancer detection and prevention. Over the past several years, I have been conducting studies using cutting-edge, high-throughput technologies to examine the role of epigenetic biomarkers in the etiology and prediction of cancer.
