Research Interests
My research laboratory has been involved in design, bench testing, preclinical testing, and then clinical testing of several new medical devices, including radio frequency ablation of liver tumors. We have a truly a translational research laboratory. The laboratory combines physics, chemistry, molecular biology, and bioengineering to produce a state-of-the-art approach to novel cancer treatment. We are currently performing in vivo preclinical studies with several novel devices and immunotherapy systems to obtain data adequate to allow us to petition the FDA for human clinical trials.
