Research summary

Dawn S. Chandler studies how genes are alternatively spliced (a process where cells cut and rearrange gene messages to make different protein versions) in cancers, especially sarcomas like liposarcoma and osteosarcoma. Her work focuses on how splicing of genes such as MDM2, MDM4, and the insulin receptor affects the tumor-suppressor protein p53 and other cancer-related pathways, and she explores splice-switching oligonucleotides (lab-made molecules that can redirect splicing) as potential therapies.

Publication output was modest and fairly steady from 2017-2022, spiked sharply in 2023 (likely due to a cluster of related supplementary materials/data records), and has since declined to a lower, still active rate through 2025-2026.
