Biography
Research Interests: Emerging field of cancer-neuroscience. She studies sympathetic nerves and how they impact pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) growth, progression and metastasis, as well as how neuro-modulatory crosstalk between nerves, cancer cells, and cancer associated fibroblasts (CAFs) could be tumor-supportive.
