معرفی
Kevin Haigis is a researcher focusing on cancer biology and systems biology approaches to studying genetically complex diseases. His research particularly emphasizes the influence of activating Ras mutations in the pathogenesis of colorectal cancer.
His laboratory develops mouse models of colon cancer with mutationally activated K-Ras or N-Ras, which mimic human colon cancers at molecular and histologic levels. The lab also creates computational models of dysregulated signaling networks to better understand disease mechanisms and tissue specificity of oncogenic mutations.
While no specific awards or publications are mentioned in this excerpt, the Haigis lab appears to be active in research and has members who have received recognition such as the Paul & Daisy Soros Fellowship.
