Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths worldwide. As it is most frequently diagnosed at late stages, our understanding of the factors driving early disease is limited. In my study, I have developed a novel model using genetically manipulated human lung cells. This model is being used to identify the genetic changes necessary and sufficient to drive the early changes observed in lung cancer. By uncovering these critical pathways, my aim is to identify potential targets for therapeutic intervention.
