My lab combines mammalian synthetic biology and fruit fly (Drosophila) models to study cancer-host interactions and to engineer immune cells
My lab is primarily focused on understanding mechanisms that support cancer development and resistance to therapy.
The focus of research in the Fruman Lab is targeted therapies to modulate signaling and metabolism in lymphocytes and leukemia
Understanding endolysosomal trafficking and sphingolipid biology and translating these discoveries into new therapies for cancer, obesity, and other diseases
The ongoing research program in the laboratory focuses on unexplored aspects of cellular transcription and translation regulation associated with viral
Our lab studies molecular and cellular mechanisms needed for assembly of neural circuits. We are currently focused on axon guidance
