Our research is focused on the study of the molecular mechanisms underlying the initiation and progression of urogenital cancers, with the long-term goal of identifying novel therapeutic targets. The projects are divided into two major parts: regulation of vesicle trafficking by Arf GTPase-activating proteins, and regulation of cancer metastasis by G protein-coupled receptor signaling.
