Philip N. Tsichlis studies the molecular biology of cancer, focusing on how signaling proteins like AKT (a kinase involved in cell growth and survival) and epigenetic regulators (proteins that control gene activity without changing DNA sequence) contribute to tumor development in cancers such as melanoma, breast cancer, and blood cell malignancies. Much of the work uses mouse models to test how removing or altering specific genes affects tumor formation and spread. Prospective students would likely engage with cancer cell biology, mouse genetics, and signaling pathway research.
