Bio/Research

Prof. Roger Moorehead investigates the mechanisms of breast and lung cancer initiation and progression using transgenic and knockout mouse models as well as a murine and human tumour cell lines. More specifically, his lab explores (i) how signaling via tyrosine kinase receptors mediates tumor development, (ii) the impact of microRNAs on tumor growth and metastasis and (iii) whether dietary soy can protect against mammary tumor development.
