The molecular basis of cancer is complex, and knowledge
and usage of new tools and techniques are required. Cell signaling via
soluble factors plays a critical role in the regulation of cell behavior
and the way we treat disease.
Currently, my research projects consist of developing microfluidics co-culture
platforms with a controllable micro-environment to study how soluble factor
interactions between the mammary gland cell populations influence cell
behavior in order to elucidate possible targets for breast cancer therapies.
To do this efficiently, computational models will be developed to help
relate experimental parameters to cell behavior in order to try to explain
and predict behavioral trends.
