Leveraging cutting-edge genetic and chemical screens to uncover novel and enhanced therapeutics for cancer treatment.
The Povedano Selfa laboratory focuses on discovering actionable vulnerabilities for hard-to-treat cancers, paving the way for first-in-class therapies. Our laboratory uses chemical and genetic screens to discover and understand the mechanism of action of small molecules. Current projects are focused on small cell lung cancer, an aggressive form of lung cancer
