Research Focus

Mitotic Checkpoint

Investigation of the cellular mechanisms that ensure accurate chromosome segregation during cell division and how these checkpoints can be targeted therapeutically.

Cell Cycle Kinases

Study of kinase regulation during cell division and identification of vulnerabilities that can be exploited for cancer treatment.

Mitotic Catastrophe

Understanding how cells undergo catastrophic mitotic failure and how this process can be harnessed for therapeutic benefit.

Synthetic Lethality

Development of combination treatment strategies that exploit cancer-specific vulnerabilities in cell cycle control.
