Current projects
Understanding tobacco carcinogen-induced lung carcinogenesis
Developing animal models to study tobacco's effects on lung cancer.
Developing non-invasive cancer risk surrogates
Develops non-invasive ways to estimate lung cancer risk in smokers, creating measurable surrogates that predict who is most likely to develop the disease.
