Research interests
Previously I participated in research projects studying epigenetic changes and therapy resistance of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM).
Currently, I am interested on protein-protein interactions in the PTEN inactive breast cancer and cell signaling pathways. I aim to perform proteomics and analyse data for breast cancer which will help to discover a new targeted therapy for PTEN inactive breast cancer.
