RESEARCH SUMMARY

My laboratory has two main areas of interest. 1) We study Cbl proteins, a family of ubiquitin ligases that negatively regulate signaling by receptor tyrosine kinases. 2) We investigate induction of apoptosis in breast cancer cells by TRAIL receptor agonists. I am an attending physician in the Women’s Malignancies clinic at NCI and in the Breast Cancer clinic at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center. As Chief, I oversee the laboratory and clinical research in the WMB. Our goal is to integrate laboratory and clinical research findings into mechanism-based, hypothesis-driven clinical trials on patients with breast and gynecological malignancies.
