Research Labs

Cancer biologist and oncologist Richard White uses the zebrafish to dissect interactions between tumor cells and the microenvironment that promote metastasis.

Molecular biologist Iestyn Whitehouse investigates chromatin structure and the function of ATP-dependent chromatin remodelling enzymes.

Physician-scientist Richard Wong studies the mechanisms of cancer cell chemotaxis in perineural invasion.

Systems biologist Joao Xavier combines experimental and computational approaches to study diverse problems relevant to cancer: how the microbiome influences cancer and cancer treatment, how cancer cells metastasize, and how metabolic fluxes command the behavior of living cells.

My laboratory and clinical research focus on understanding genomics and signaling in colorectal cancer to develop new treatments for patients.

Digital pathology scientist Yukako Yagi, PhD studies the development and validation of technologies in digital imaging.

Xinbo Yang’s lab applies structural biology and protein engineering to decode T cell receptor specificity in cancer and autoimmune disease.

The Zallen laboratory focuses on the generation of tissue structure through the collective action of cell populations.

Medical physicist Pat Zanzonico focuses on radionuclide-based methods for detecting and localizing tumor hypoxia, immune effector-cell trafficking, patient-specific dosimetry for radionuclide therapies, and small-animal and molecular imaging.

Molecular biologist Xiaolan Zhao studies chromosomal organization, genome integrity, DNA replication and repair, dynamic protein modification.
