My research in Dr. Chaluvally-Raghavan’s lab uncovers the roles of RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) on post-transcriptional and translational regulation of oncogenes. My research particularly focuses on RBPs are overly expressed in cancer cells due to copy number variations (CNVs). Using molecular biology, cell biology and biochemical approaches, we are characterizing the mechanism of action of RBPs in cancer cells. We expect that our studies will identify novel biomarkers and therapeutic targets for cancer therapy.
