Research
- My primary research area is on small RNA biology. Our research activity is
mainly focusing on studying the role of small RNAs in cancer development and
drug resistance.

A major effort of our previous work had focused on the identification of
novel small RNAs (particularly miRNAs) and the documentation of their
expression patterns in several tissue types. We also evaluated the potential
use of miRNA expression profiles in tumor classification and prognostication.
Our current projects focus primarily on the functional roles of small RNAs
along with their regulatory components in clinically relevant experimental
systems.
