If you remember any of high school Biology, you probably know that DNA contains the genetic code for all organisms on Earth. Within its double helix structure are genes, which provide instructions for characteristics such as hair color or eye color. What...
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.
