Michael's research in Dr. Attardi's lab focuses on elucidating pathways through which the protein p53 regulates tumor suppression. Specifically, he is interested in the role that Pard6g, a known regulator of cellular polarity, plays in mediating p53 tumor suppressor function.
Poster presented at the Stanford Bio-X Interdisciplinary Initiatives Symposium on August 27, 2014:
