Ricardo A. Cordova studies the biochemistry of cancer and metabolism, investigating how metabolic pathways, diet, and small molecules influence tumor growth and treatment response. Recent work includes discovering and mapping unknown mammalian metabolites, exploring how gut microbiome metabolism affects cancer drug activity, and identifying drug candidates that target cancer-related proteins. The research combines molecular biology, drug screening, and computational tools such as language models to study metabolites.
