Meet the Co-Directors
Martin J Walsh, PhD
PROFESSOR | Pharmacological Sciences
PROFESSOR | Genetics and Genomic Sciences
PROFESSOR | Pediatrics
Walsh’s research focuses on prostate, colon and breast cancer, using both patient-based genomic, epigenomic and transcriptomic data analysis and mouse genetics approaches, to investigate the underlying epigenetic and chromatin-biological mechanisms that alter the transcriptional and post-transcriptional controls leading changes in cell fates driving oncogenesis.
James J Manfredi, PhD
PROFESSOR | Oncological Sciences
PROFESSOR | Cell, Developmental & Regenerative Biology
Dr. Manfredi’s research focuses on the molecular biology of the tumor suppressor p53 and how the p53 pathway can be used to enhance cancer therapy.
