The Saha Lab.

Under the guidance of director Dr. Daolin Tang, the research group focuses on basic, translational and clinical application research on damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) signaling pathways. Inflammation is a fundamental response to infection and injury in all multicellular organisms. The danger hypothesis states that endogenous molecules (protein and non-protein) released during cell death or tissue damage can trigger inflammation in the absence of infection, collectively referred to as DAMPs. We are particularly interested in elucidating the molecular mechanisms underlying stress-induced cellular defense and cell death signaling in normal and cancer cells, and how release of DAMPs modulates immune responses in disease.

The Ank Nijhawan research team is focused on improving outcomes for people living with or at risk for HIV, and ensuring their access to comprehensive healthcare and social support services. We also focus on individuals involved in the criminal legal system, and specifically the overlap of infectious diseases such as HIV, hepatitis, sexually transmitted infections and substance use.

The Olson Lab takes a trip to Cedar Creek Reservoir for a lake house weekend getaway.

Dr. Zhu has investigated disease mechanisms and attempted to develop novel therapeutic strategies for tumor suppressor gene (TSG), syndrome-associated tumors in the nervous system, and neuropsychiatric disorders.

Skip to main content What We Do We focus on the role of microenvironment immunometabolism in radiation response to ultimately achieve personalized, biology-guided radiotherapy. Our research spans model development, basic science, preclinical studies, and clinical trials. Our success is measured by ou…
