Research summary
AI-generated

Ruoning Wang's research focuses on how cancer cells rewire their metabolism and interact with the immune system, particularly in cancers driven by the MYC gene such as neuroblastoma and liver cancer. Recent work explores how metabolic changes in tumors and immune cells influence cancer growth and treatment response, including approaches like CAR-T cell therapy, immune-based nanoparticle delivery, and drugs that alter cancer cell behavior. The lab combines mouse models, cell biology, and genomic/epigenetic analysis to study tumor development and to design new immunotherapy strategies.
