About Your Lab: The Genome Variation and Regulation Laboratory is interested in understanding the molecular drivers of breast cancer genetic risk.
Using Genome-wide Association Studies (GWAS), we have identified over 200 genomic loci associated with breast cancer risk, but defining the causal genes at these loci represents a major challenge.
We have used in vitro CRISPR screens to evaluate the role of candidate genes in several cancer hallmarks.
This has identified several candidates that we now wish to evaluate further with the view of understanding the mechanisms through which these targets function.
We also plan to perform in vivo CRISPR screens of the same GWAS candidate genes in murine mammary models.
Breast cancer genes detected in these experiments will be assessed for suitability as targets for prevention and treatment.
