Protein networks in disease

Our program takes advantage of properties of protein networks in cancer to understand, diagnose and treat diseases, such as cancer and neurodegenerative diseases.

​

It aims to investigate the identity and the architecture of protein networks in cells exposed to chronic molecular and environmental stresses with the goal of understanding disease mechanisms and identifying vulnerabilities.

​

It aims to take advantage of these vulnerabilities to discover and develop drug candidates, biomarkers, diagnostics and treatment strategies.

​

Our ultimate goal is the translation of our discoveries from bench to bedside.
