Overview

I am a project manager at University of California, San Diego (UCSD), working primarily with the departments of Moores Cancer Center (MCC) and Radiation Medicine and Applied Sciences (RMAS). I am part of the laboratory of Ida Deichaite, PhD, Assistant Professor. Our research focuses on prostate and head and neck cancers to identify new therapeutic targets and prognostic tools for personalized therapeutic treatments. We use real world data with high translational potential to expedite development of new treatment options. I have been involved with project management and coordination for many translational studies. I am also part of a collaborative working group at RMAS of faculty, residents, and researchers working to identify radiation therapy biomarkers of response to address an unmet need in HNSCC cancer treatment. Our group's research is well aligned with translational objectives for RT diagnostics, and development of new algorithms to integrate radiogenomics in successful clinical treatment.

Altmetrics Details

PMC Citations indicate the number of times the publication was cited by articles in PubMed Central, and the Altmetric score represents citations in news articles and social media. (Note that publications are often cited in additional ways that are not shown here.) Fields are based on how the National Library of Medicine (NLM) classifies the publication's journal and might not represent the specific topic of the publication. Translation tags are based on the publication type and the MeSH terms NLM assigns to the publication. Some publications (especially newer ones and publications not in PubMed) might not yet be assigned Field or Translation tags.) Click a Field or Translation tag to filter the publications.
