Angelo D'Alessandro studies the chemistry of metabolism in blood and disease, using techniques like metabolomics (the large-scale measurement of small molecules in cells) and mass spectrometry. A major focus is how red blood cells function and change during storage for transfusion, along with how metabolic pathways such as tryptophan breakdown relate to cancer behavior. Recent work examines blocking tryptophan catabolism to reduce the aggressiveness of triple-negative breast cancer.
