Cancer-Focused Research
I am the Director of the Stem Cell Core and a Research Assistant Professor in the Department of Neurology at Northwestern University with a research focus on stem cell biology, neurology, disease modeling, and cancer. I generated patient-derived stem cell cancer lines, brain tumor xenografts, and established disease models to study rare diseases and cancer using organoid technology and patient-derived iPSCs.
