  My laboratory investigates how oncogenes initiate and sustain tumorigenesis. I have developed model systems whereby I can conditionally activate oncogenes in normal human and mouse cells in tissue culture or in specific tissues of transgenic mice. In particular using the tetracycline regulatory system, I have generated a conditional model system for MYC-induced tumors. I have shown that cancers caused by the conditional over-expression of the MYC proto-oncogene regress with its inactivation.

  The general problem with which we are concerned is the elucidation of cellular mechanisms of gene regulation which are related to the neoplastic process in humans. The phenomenon of ectopic protein synthesis in human cancer offers a good experimental model for investigating this problem.

  My research interest is in the use of molecular methods to understand and characterize hematopoietic neoplasms. My current work focuses on the use of PCR-based assays for clonal rearrangements in the immunoglobulin heavy chain gene (IGH) and T-cell receptor gene (TCR) for the diagnosis of mature T-cell lymphomas.
