Research summary
AI-generated

Sylvain Ferrandon studies colorectal and rectal cancer, focusing on how factors like gut bacteria (such as Fusobacterium nucleatum and Candida albicans), tumor oxygen levels (hypoxia), and cell metabolism pathways influence tumor growth and resistance to treatments such as radiation and chemotherapy. This work aims to identify biological markers and mechanisms that could explain why some tumors resist standard therapies. Students interested in cancer biology, the gut microbiome's role in disease, and treatment resistance mechanisms may find this research area relevant.

Publication output was modest and steady from 2017-2022, spiked sharply in 2023 (likely due to a cluster of supplementary materials from a few studies), dropped to zero in 2024, and has resumed at a low level in 2025-2026.
