Novel epigenetic and molecular determinants of gastric cancer initation and progression

每年有超过一百万人死于胃癌。这种通常致命的疾病可以由细菌H感染引起。幽门。我是一名分子生物学家，试图了解H。幽门螺杆菌驱动一个基因签名，可以用来预测胃癌的风险。我还将研究一个新的胃蛋白质家族如何防止肿瘤生长。我的研究旨在引领胃癌早期发现和治疗的新举措。

Over one million deaths from stomach cancer occur annually. This often fatal disease can be caused by infection with the bacterium H. pylori. I am a molecular biologist seeking to understand how inflammation caused by H. pylori drives a genetic signature which can be used to predict stomach cancer risk. I will also study how a new family of stomach proteins can prevent tumour growth. My research aims to lead new initiatives for early detection and treatment of stomach cancer.
