Expertise

Research focuses on the study of human papillomaviruses (HPV), a family of viruses that causes genital warts, cervical and other lower genital tract cancers, and a subset of head and neck cancers. The research is designed to understand viral gene expression and replication, induction of oncogenic transformation by viral gene products, and to develop novel strategies for medical treatment of these infections.
