Andrei Goga is a basic investigator as well as a medical oncologist whose lab is focused on studies of oncogene function and the identification of new therapeutic strategies to target currently undrugable cancers and to eliminate metastasis.
Much of our work is focused on aggressive forms of cancer, such as receptor triple-negative breast cancer, oral, head and neck, liver and lung cancers. Dr. Goga has received scholar awards from the Susan G. Komen Foundation, the Leukemia Lymphoma Society, and a CDMRP Breast Cancer Research Program - Era of Hope Award. |
