Cancer-Focused Research

My laboratory is interested in understanding the functions of a transcription factor called KLF2 in T lymphocyte biology. Specifically, we seek to understand why expression of KLF2 is lost following T cell activation, using a novel genetically engineered mouse strain which cannot silence KLF2 expression.
