Lawrence S. Kirschner studies the genetics and molecular biology of endocrine tumors, including adrenal, pituitary, and neuroendocrine cancers such as pheochromocytomas, paragangliomas, and primary aldosteronism. His work spans laboratory models (mouse and cell-based studies of genes like PRKAR1A, PKA, and SDHB/SDHD) as well as clinical studies and trials related to hormone-producing tumors. Prospective students would likely engage with both basic molecular research and translational/clinical endocrine oncology projects.
