Molecular Medicine Research Labs

Our Molecular Medicine researchers seek to understand the molecular mechanisms behind critical cellular responses to ionizing radiation (including DNA repair, cellular proliferation, and inflammation), as well as to develop biological markers that predict how an individual may respond. Their research encompasses several areas of investigation, including radiation resistance and radiation sensitization, DNA double-strand break repair, prognostic markers for therapeutic outcomes, biology of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT), and space radiation biology.
