Research Interests

Cancer Metastasis, Cell Migration and Invasion, Pancreas Cancer, Liver metastasis

I am a cancer biologist interested in developing organ on a chip to model metastasis and recurrence of cancer. My primary interests are pancreatic cancer and melanoma, but I am not limited to these types. I am also interested in modeling cancer dormancy and the effects of extracellular matrix on the dormant state of cancer cells.
