What We Do

  • Determine how risk factors contribute to ovarian cancer initiation and progression
  • High-throughput genomics to investigate models of ovarian cancer
  • Design, develop, and test novel immune therapies for ovarian cancer
  • Evaluate chromatin remodelling proteins involved in regulating cell state
