Research summary

Deborah W. Knapp studies bladder and urinary tract cancer in dogs, using naturally occurring canine tumors as models to understand and improve treatment of invasive bladder cancer in both animals and humans. Her work spans diagnostic imaging, drug and radiation therapy approaches, and molecular/genomic comparisons between canine and human cancers. This research area is often called 'comparative oncology,' meaning it studies cancer across species to find insights relevant to human medicine.
