Scott Shore

Scott Shore, PhD is an Associate Professor at Temple University's Lewis Katz School of Medicine with dual appointments in the Department of Medical Genetics and Molecular Biochemistry and the Department of Biomedical Education and Data Science. He also serves as Associate Dean of Graduate and Postbaccalaureate Programs and is affiliated with the Fels Cancer Institute for Personalized Medicine.

Dr. Shore received his education at Drexel University. His research focuses on cellular signaling mechanisms, particularly protein kinases and their role in cellular processes.

Dr. Shore's research interests include:

• Mechanisms of cellular signaling, particularly protein kinases responsible for phosphorylation of specific amino acids
• The Abl gene family members and their role in cellular growth, differentiation, and transformation
• The Snp70 protein, a proline-rich phosphoprotein that serves as a substrate for multiple kinases
• SH3 domain-mediated protein interactions and their role in functional complex assembly

His publication record demonstrates a consistent focus on tyrosine kinases, particularly Src and Abl family members, and their roles in carcinogenesis and cellular transformation. His work spans molecular mechanisms, cancer biology, and potential therapeutic approaches targeting these signaling pathways.

As Associate Dean of Graduate and Postbaccalaureate Programs, Dr. Shore plays a key role in shaping academic programs and mentoring the next generation of biomedical scientists. His dual departmental appointments reflect the interdisciplinary nature of his work bridging basic science and data-driven approaches in biomedical education.

Dr. Shore's laboratory work has provided important insights into protein kinase signaling networks and their dysregulation in cancer, with potential implications for developing targeted therapies.
