Neil Bhowmick, PhD
Personal Statement

I trained in structure-function biology of luteinizing hormone-receptor interactions, and went on to identify how stromal fibroblasts and associated cancer cells communicate via transforming growth factor-ß signaling. These experiences have helped our laboratory identify targets for intervention that can serve to support sensitivity to current cancer cell targeted therapies. Applications of these concepts have resulted in testing in cytokine and metabolic regulators in clinically relevant animal models of prostate, lung, renal, colon, pancreatic and bladder cancer. We are excited about the cross-disciplinary collaborations that have enabled us to interrogate signaling mechanisms and therapeutic development for cancer patients.
