NCI
Genetic and signaling pathways in epithelial thyroid carcinogenesis. Core B: Mouse Imaging and Pathology.
The goals of this project are to delineate the genetics of follicular thyroid carcinogenesis through a multidisciplinary translational approach spanning translational human genetics, mouse modeling, in vitro functional interrogation, and experimental therapeutics.  The overall goal is to be an integrated resource to support mouse modeling as a means for studying the molecular basis of thyroid cancer.
