Epigenetic drivers of Prostate Cancer Bone Metastasis
We study how particular epigenetic modifiers can impact prostate cancer development and progression to bone metastasis, as well as how they might influence resistance to standard of care and experimental therapies.
Functional Identification of Therapeutic Vulnerabilities in mCRPC
We use unbiased, in vivo and genome-wide CRISPR screening approaches to indentify therapeutic vulnerabilities of the most aggressive, currently incurable prostate tumors.

Physicians and scientists on the faculty of the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai often interact with pharmaceutical, device, biotechnology companies, and other outside entities to improve patient care, develop new therapies and achieve scientific breakthroughs. In order to promote an ethical and transparent environment for conducting research, providing clinical care and teaching, Mount Sinai requires that salaried faculty inform the School of their outside financial relationships.
