Scientific interest: My research interest lies in deciphering the contribution of host stroma/immune system in cancer progression and treatment resistance in cancers. I am fascinated by how cancer cell actively alters the surrounding normal tissues to create a conducive environment to support its growth. The tumor-immune cell relationship is both complex and minimally understood. My research goals are focused on: A) Understanding the mechanisms that enable cancer cells to effectively evade immune response; B) Delineate the role of tumor-driven inflammation in tumor recurrence and metastatic progression; C) Studying tumor-immune crosstalk regulating radiotherapeutic resistance.
