    As a Postdoctoral Scholar in the Urology department at UCSF, my research has been dedicated to understanding and addressing drug resistance mechanisms in breast cancer and other aggressive tumors. Currently, my research focuses on uncovering novel molecular mechanisms that underlie the emergence of drug-tolerant persister cells, with a specific emphasis on enhancing the efficacy of treatments for ER-positive breast cancer patients. During my research journey, I have co-authored research publications that delve into the intricate interactions between oncoproteins and transcription factors. Additionally, my work has explored the role of targeted therapies and therapeutic antibodies in the context of cancer treatment. Through my work, I have been able to identify potential therapeutic targets and develop strategies aimed at overcoming resistance to existing therapies.

    Altmetrics Details PMC Citations indicate the number of times the publication was cited by articles in PubMed Central, and the Altmetric score represents citations in news articles and social media. (Note that publications are often cited in additional ways that are not shown here.) Fields are based on how the National Library of Medicine (NLM) classifies the publication's journal and might not represent the specific topic of the publication. Translation tags are based on the publication type and the MeSH terms NLM assigns to the publication. Some publications (especially newer ones and publications not in PubMed) might not yet be assigned Field or Translation tags.) Click a Field or Translation tag to filter the publications.
