Overview
My passion for investigative research is fundamentally dependent on its power to impact our understanding of human disease and ultimately improve patient care. I engage basic and translational research efforts to generate opportunities for advances in medical oncology. In particular, I am committed to understanding the specific genomic alterations and fundamental molecular mechanisms that promote gastrointestinal malignancies with the hope that novel insights will translate into clinical advances.

PMC Citations indicate the number of times the publication was cited by articles in PubMed Central, and the Altmetric score represents citations in news articles and social media. (Note that publications are often cited in additional ways that are not shown here.) Fields are based on how the National Library of Medicine (NLM) classifies the publication's journal and might not represent the specific topic of the publication. Translation tags are based on the publication type and the MeSH terms NLM assigns to the publication. Some publications (especially newer ones and publications not in PubMed) might not yet be assigned Field or Translation tags.) Click a Field or Translation tag to filter the publications.
