Research Labs

Dr. Solomon is an interventional radiologist whose team investigates novel minimally invasive, image-guided therapies and their biologic and immunologic interactions.

Physician-scientist Laura Tang studies the molecular pathogenesis of cell transformation in neuroendocrine neoplasms of the gastrointestinal tract and pancreas and adenocarcinomas of the stomach and gastrointestinal junction.

Molecular geneticist Britta Weigelt studies the genomics of gynecologic cancers and the use of circulating cell-free DNA for disease monitoring and the identification of therapy resistance mechanisms.

Physician-scientist Martin Weiser investigates the mechanisms underlying tumor spread and metastasis and how these mechanisms could be targeted.

Cancer biologist Hans-Guido Wendel pursues both disease-centered and basic discovery research. The disease focus is on lymphocyte malignancies and the basic science arm of the lab explores fundamental mechanisms that control aberrant mRNA translation programs in cancer. Work in these two research areas frequently intersects in surprising ways.

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