Bio
Translational research bridges basic research and patient care through the development of new therapies, medical devices, digital health applications or novel diagnostics. This ‘bench to bedside” approach is one that has been fostered by the National Cancer Institute, where I previously worked for over 12 years. With my background in Cell and Molecular Biology, my research focuses on the development of new technologies to improve molecular diagnostics for cancer. I am particularly interested in identifying new biomarkers for the early detection of metastatic disease.
