Research Interests
Roles that epigenetic factors might play in regulating cell differentiation and whether these factors can be modified in order to induce stem cell differentiation along specific cell lineages.
How these epigenetic factors are involved in the pathogenesis of specific diseases, such as cancer, and how they can be altered as a way of treating these diseases.
