Keith Jarosinski’s research spans multiple aspects of herpesvirus-induced cancers, including host-to-host transmission, latency, transformation, and reactivation, using Marek’s disease virus (MDV) in chickens as a natural translational animal model. Most herpesviruses...
Christopher Gaulke has over a decade of experience integrating diverse data to uncover molecular mechanisms underpinning host-microbe interactions. He earned his PhD with Dr. Satya Dandekar at the University of California, Davis, characterizing the mechanisms through...
Rebecca Smith is an epidemiologist with an interest in co-morbidities. Smith has extensive training in statistics, with a specialization in longitudinal data analysis and a strong background in risk analysis and disease modeling. Smith has collaborated with other CCIL...
H. Rex Gaskins’ research focuses on host-intestinal microbe interactions relevant to colorectal cancer with a particular interest in microbial sulfur metabolism. Efforts to understand colonic mucosal responses to hydrogen sulfide led to further interest in redox...
Hyunjoon (Joon) Kong’s lab is developing advanced biomaterials that can be used to address problems in biology and medicine. The Kong lab conducts research that aims to better understand the roles of an extracellular matrix and bio-transports on cancer...
Timothy Fan laboratory works closely with other basic scientists to evaluate novel drugs and drug delivery strategies for cancer treatment. He has conducted preclinical murine tumor research for over 15 years and facilitated the development of novel drugs and drug...
