Craig J. Burd

Craig J. Burd's research examines how hormones and hormone-mimicking chemicals (endocrine disrupting chemicals, or EDCs, such as bisphenol A) affect the development of hormone-sensitive tissues like the mammary gland, and how these processes relate to cancer risk in breast, prostate, and skin (melanoma). His work combines mouse models, cell lines, and molecular studies of genes such as GREB1 and cyclin D1 to understand how estrogen signaling and hormone receptor activity influence tumor development and progression. This research sits at the intersection of endocrinology, developmental biology, and cancer biology.

Publication output has grown somewhat unevenly since 2017, rising to a peak in 2023, with roughly 3 papers per year on average over the last five years.
