RESEARCH SUMMARY
Dr. Whitlock is a cancer biologist interested in identifying genomic, genetic, and epigenetic alterations in localized prostate cancer that promote disease progression. Using whole transcriptome sequencing (RNA-seq) and the Assay for Transposase-Accessible Chromatin sequencing (ATAC-seq), her current research seeks to identify biomarkers that differentiate indolent from aggressive prostate cancer and shape the differential biology of the MYC oncogene in early vs. advanced disease.
