Abstract 5119: RAB27B drives a cancer stem cell phenotype in non-small cell lung cancer cells through enhanced extracellular vesicle secretion.
What are your long-term career goals?
I aspire to make meaningful contributions to our understanding of cancer that address unmet clinical needs and lead to the development of better treatment options for cancer patients. My research program is focused on investigating how aberrant gene expression alters signal transduction pathways and contribute to tumor initiation, maintenance, and progression. My specific goal is to provide novel insights into these processes to help uncover vulnerabilities that can be therapeutically targeted to treat cancer.
