Research Interest:

Two Major Projects are Currently Underway in the Laboratory.
A Cell Reprogramming Technique Has Been Used to Convert Heterogeneous Malignant Breast Cancer Cells into Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells Using Sox2/Oct4/Nanog Proteins. Dr. Wu’s Laboratory is Clarifying these Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells for their Differentiation Potential and Oncogenic Properties, and Try to Develop a Novel Cell Converting Therapy for Malignant Breast Cancer Treatment.
Metastasis, the Spread of Cancer Cells from the Primary Tumor To Distant Organs, Is The Most Dreadful Development Of Breast Cancer, As Well As Other Neoplastic Diseases. Although Metastasis Contributes To Over 90% Of Human Cancer Mortality, The Molecular Mechanism Of This Process Remains Largely Unknown. Dr. Wu’s Laboratory Is In The Process Of Identifying Molecular Signatures Involved In Breast Cancer Metastasis Using Integrative Genetic, Epigenetic And Proteomic Approach, As Well As Animal Models And Clinical Specimens.
