Project Description
Wnt signaling is a fundamental and critical pathway required for the proliferation of cells in various tissues. I am interested in uncovering the mechanistic process by which Wnt signaling controls cell division during homeostasis, and how such processes are utilized or exploited in disease states. The elucidation of altered Wnt control on cell proliferation will allow for directed target of cells with abnormal proliferation.
