We investigate (1) how UBR5, a novel protein ubiquitin ligase frequently altered in human cancers, promotes tumor metastasis by regulating epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) in a cell intrinsic manner;(2) to identify UBR5’s E3 ...

My research focuses on deciphering the role of exosomes in mediating the crosstalk between the host immune system and the tumor, and the mechanisms through which exosomes coax the immune system to contribute to ...
