What we do
Our research is focussed on improving our understanding of breast cancer biology, particularly mechanisms by which breast cancers evolve to develop resistance to cancer drugs. We are investigating the biochemical, metabolic, epigenetic and genetic changes that drive drug resistance. Using these approaches, we aim to identify biomarkers of response and resistance to current cancer drugs and identify targets for new cancer drug discovery.
