Chemical Biology and Drug Discovery of Cell Death

细胞程序性死亡调节细胞在发育和成年期的命运。在生物学和化学的前沿工作，我领导的研究项目致力于揭示细胞死亡过程涉及广泛的疾病，如癌症，炎症性疾病和组织损伤。我将开发新的小分子，作为强大的工具来增加我们对细胞死亡如何参与这些疾病的理解，并帮助开发新的药物来治疗它们。

Programmed cell death regulates the fate of cells during development and adult life. Working at the frontier of biology and chemistry, I lead research programs committed to uncovering cell death processes implicated in a wide range of diseases such as cancer, inflammatory diseases and tissue damage. I will develop novel small molecules that will act as powerful tools to increase our understanding of how cell death participates in these conditions and help develop new drugs to treat them.
