Research summary
AI-generated

Qi-En Wang's research focuses on how cells detect and repair DNA damage, and how defects in these repair processes contribute to cancer development, treatment resistance, and cell death. Specific interests include the nucleotide excision repair protein XPC, DNA damage response factors like DDB2, and how these pathways affect apoptosis, chemotherapy/radiation resistance, and tumor suppression in cancers such as melanoma, ovarian cancer, and lung cancer. The lab also explores related topics such as tumor metabolism, microRNA regulation, and molecular markers of cancer prognosis.

Publication output was modest and fairly steady from 2017-2022 (roughly 2-9 papers/year), then spiked sharply in 2023 (88 items, likely including multiple linked supplementary/data records) before returning to a lower, still active level in 2024-2025.
