  Research Interest

  My research focuses on finding new ways to treat and prevent non-melanoma skin cancer. I am committed to bringing laboratory-based insights to benefit our patients. I am interested in these questions: 1. How do we prevent skin cancer? 2. What is the relationship between sunlight, vitamin D, and skin cancer risk? 3. Can we target certain tumor signaling pathways (Hedgehog pathway) to treat basal cell carcinomas - the most common cancer in the US?

  Research Interest

  The Teruel Lab uses a combination of engineering and biological approaches including high-throughput screening of RNAi and DNA construct libraries, targeted mass spectrometry, live-cell fluorescence microscopy, and bioinformatics to investigate the systems biology of cell differentiation and cell signaling with particular focus on uncovering the molecular mechanisms underlying insulin resistance, diabetes, and obesity.

  Member,  Bio-X
  
  Research Interest

  Molecular theories of anesthesia. My emphasis is on the molecular interactions of inhalational anesthetics and alcohol. I perform computational chemistry simulations on how these molecules bind to putative receptor sites. I am also interested in modeling receptor proteins in which chimeras cause loss or enhancement of anesthetic sensitivity.

  Research Interest

  Our primary interests are in the molecular underpinnings of vascular disease as well as assessing disease risk. In addition to targeted investigation of specific signaling molecules, we utilize global genomic analysis to identify gene expression networks and regulatory units. We are particularly interested in the role of microRNAs in gene expression pathways associated with disease.

  Research Interest

  My research focus is on tumor angiogenesis. We are working on the contributions of progenitor cells in the formation of tumor vessels. We are particularly interested in a population of cells that are derived from putative "hemangioblast", and their role in vasculogenesis. We sumrise that these cells have a close association with cancer stem cells, and are essential in promoting tumor expansion.
