Hosted by Michael Lynes
Department of Molecular and Cell Biology Seminar Series welcomes Dr. Olga Anczukow, Assistant Professor, Jackson Laboratory of Genomic Medicine. Dr. Olga Anczukow's lab investigates how changes in RNA splicing contribute to cancer, with the goal of developing novel therapeutic strategies to target splicing alterations and their regulators.
"Misregulation of splicing factors in breast cancer"
Alternative RNA splicing is a key step in gene expression regulation and contributes to proteomic and functional diversity. Our lab studies the splicing machinery and its misregulation in human tumors, with the goal of identifying novel tumor biomarkers and therapeutic targets.
