Laboratory Description
The Precision Oncology lab approach to cancer research has grown in parallel with the rapid expansion of bioinformatics and sequencing technology over the past ten years. The lab led by Mark Rubin is focused on finding new vulnerabilities in androgen receptor (AR) resistance prostate cancer and developing therapies to combat the most aggressive forms of prostate cancer by studying patient-derived samples, in vivo and in vitro models, and functional screens. Combining multiple data sets from genomic, epigenetic, transcriptomic, and proteomic analyses, we hope to elucidate the mechanisms of prostate cancer progression and therapy resistance, including lineage plastic resistance.
