Skip to main content Join Us Become a Team Member The Whitehurst lab is seeking energetic, dedicated graduate students and postdoctoral fellows to join our work. Current Projects Cancer-Testis Antigens (aka Cancer Germline Genes) Cancer-testis antigens are normally only expressed in testis, but we have discovered a cohort of cancer-testis antigens expressed in tumor cells and localized to the mitochondria. Inhibition of these proteins leads to a loss of tumor cell viability. This project will
