معرفی
Professor Rakesh Heer is affiliated with Newcastle University and actively contributes to prostate and bladder cancer research. His work focuses on molecular mechanisms, stem cell dynamics, and translational approaches.
- Academic Rank: Professor
- Research Themes: Prostate Cancer, Bladder Cancer, Cancer Stem Cells, Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells (iPSCs), Androgen Receptor Signaling, Glycosylation Pathways
Recent publications highlight his exploration of glycobiology in prostate cancer immunity (e.g., ST3Gal1 and ST6GAL1 roles) and AI applications in bladder cancer recurrence prediction. He also investigates OXPHOS defects, prostate organoids, and clinical trial methodologies for castration-resistant prostate cancer.
Professor Heer collaborates extensively on iPSC-based cancer models and urological surgical techniques, including photodynamic diagnosis and focal therapy. His work bridges fundamental molecular biology, translational research, and clinical practice.
