Mechanisms of DNA double-stranded break repair and Chromosomal Translocation
The Frock lab studies the genome-wide fate of various forms of double-stranded DNA breaks (DSBs). Projects in the lab use a combination of genetics, molecular biology, next generation sequencing, and bioinformatics to uncover DSB mechanisms and to reveal a deeper understanding of DSB repair processes.
The long term goal of the Frock lab is to develop novel cancer diagnostics/therapeutics and genome editing approaches.
