X marks the spot: What we know about diseases and X-linked genes
A Review of Chromosome Structure and Function With the time spent learning about breast cancer in Dr. Pollock’s lab, I have become more interested in learning if X-linked genes are associated with breast cancer. Before we get into the details, let’s take a...
The Pollock lab utilizes chemical biology techniques, biochemical methods, and organic synthesis to understand breast cancer and inflammatory disease development and progression. In particular, we are interested in nuclear receptor function, phosphorylation signaling pathways, design of prodrugs, and the link between cancer and inflammation. We have a lot of collaborators on and off campus so we can expand our scientific discoveries.
