Research summary
AI-generated

This researcher studies naturally occurring cancers in dogs, especially bladder (urothelial) cancer and brain tumors, as models for understanding and treating similar cancers in humans. Their work spans genetics of cancer risk in specific dog breeds, drug resistance mechanisms (including immune-checkpoint therapy resistance), and clinical trials of targeted cancer drugs like vemurafenib in canine patients. The research combines molecular biology techniques (proteomics, gene expression profiling) with veterinary clinical studies to advance comparative oncology.
