Professor Oncology
Biography

Adam investigates the impact of chromatin structure and epigenetics on cell proliferation, aging and cancer. In particular, we hypothesize that age-associated changes in chromatin structure, function and regulation contribute to the dramatic age-associated increase in incidence of cancer.

Research Intrest
