James E. Klaunig studies how chemicals cause cancer and liver damage, with a focus on understanding the biological mechanisms (called "modes of action") by which substances like industrial pollutants, pesticides, and PFAS compounds trigger tumors. Much of the work applies this mechanistic understanding to risk assessment—determining whether findings in laboratory animals are relevant to human health. The research also covers liver injury pathways, including roles of small regulatory molecules (microRNAs) and oxidative stress.
