  Research Interest

  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.

  Research Interest

  We study natural cellular mechanisms for adapting to genetic change. These include systems activated during normal development and those for detecting and responding to foreign or unwanted genetic activity. Underlying these studies are questions of how a cells can distinguish information as "self" versus "nonself" or "wanted" versus "unwanted".

  Research Interest

  Our research focus is on the early events of hepatitis C virus infection- virus attachment and entry into susceptible cells. The approach is through the generation and functional studies of human monoclonal antibodies (HMAbs) to the virus envelope proteins with an emphasis on antibodies to conformational epitopes.
