Current Focus: Understanding the SWI/SNF Chromatin Remodeling Complex

Project Description

I investigate the interactions between the oncoprotein MYC and the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complexes in the context of the cancers malignant rhabdoid tumor and neuroblastoma. In order to elucidate these interactions our lab employs a combination of genetic, genomic, molecular, and biochemical techniques.
