Major Scientific/Research Achievements
Signficant advancements in GU cancer research; urothelial biology, stem cells, and androgen receptor research: ART-27 in prostate cancer growth, proximal prostatic stem cells, pur alpha as a critical repressor of the AR gene transcription and its loss in hormone refractory prostate cancer, targeting AR in lieu of androgen deprivation hormone therapy to inhibit recurrent prostate cancer growth, genetically engineered mice to advance divergent urothelial tumorigenesis pathways.
