"Riccardo Dalla-Favera, is a Professor at Pathology & Cell Biology with research interest The development of many types of cancer is due to genetic lesions involving proto-oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes. It is well established that multiple lesions must occur in a cell before cancer can develop. The general goal of this laboratory is to identify the lesions and the genes involved in the development of human B cell lymphoma, to determine the mechanism by which these lesions occur and to elucidate the contribution of each lesion to tumor development using mouse models."
