Lab Research Focus
The research interests of our group are the treatment of cancer at multiple modality levels, quantitation of tumor load, follow-up of the response of tumors to different agents and modalities, understanding the interactions between the immune and central nervous systems, and the changes that take place in the immune system with age. I am interested in developing new approaches for the treatment of cancer, including combination treatments like passive therapy, immune stimulation, and chemotherapy. Secondly, our group has developed a conditioning paradigm for an increase in natural killer cell and cytotoxic T-lymphocyte activities. The model is used extensively in our laboratory to study the mechanisms of central nervous and the immune system interactions and the mechanisms of conditioned regulation of tumor growth.
