Leveraging cutting-edge genetic and chemical screens to uncover novel and enhanced therapeutics for cancer treatment.

Multidisciplinary research to beat cancer

The Wetzel Lab targets critical steps in the parasite’s life cycle in order to develop therapeutics for Leishmaniasis.

Zaki Lab's research focuses on the the study of gastrointestinal inflammation and cancer.

The ultimate goal of the Nijhawan-De Branander Lab is to discover first in class drugs for the treatment of cancer. 

The McFadden lab uses genetically engineered mice and human cancer cells to identify new genes and small molecules that regulate cancer cell growth.

The Ready Lab is engaged in the discovery and synthesis of biologically active small molecules

We focus on the discovery of targeted therapies for major drivers of cancer using protein chemistry, enzymology, structural biology, informatics and cell biology. Some of our favorite targets are RAS and kinase proteins.
