Research summary
AI-generated

This researcher focuses on head and neck cancer, combining clinical surgical work (including microvascular reconstructive surgery) with laboratory studies on drugs that target cancer cell survival pathways, such as Bcl-2 and survivin inhibitors. Recent work also explores using artificial intelligence to analyze tissue images (H&E stains) to predict which patients will respond to immunotherapy. This body of work spans surgical oncology, drug resistance mechanisms, and emerging computational pathology tools.

Publication output was relatively steady (10-20 per year) from 2017-2022, then showed a large spike in 2023 (70 publications, partly reflecting supplementary data records for prior studies) followed by a marked decline in 2024-2025.
