Cancer Chemoprevention and Epigenomics

Major Research Direction

In the Epigenomics of hormone-driven cancers group, current projects focus on 

  • The role of 5-hydroxymethylation in human adipogenesis
  • Profiling DNA hydroxy-/methylation and chromatin accessibility in human intervention studies
  • Epigenetic mechanisms in cancer and metastasis development, with a focus on breast and prostate cancer
  • Developing biomarkers for endogenous endocrine resistance in breast cancer
  • Characterizing the enhancer methylome in prostate cancer
  • The pan-prostate cancer methylome landscape
