Sin Yin (Sean) Lim, PharmD, MS – DT
Department: Pharmaceutical Sciences
Research Interest: Focus on pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of drugs in special populations. Developing new therapeutics and the refinement of dosing for repurposed drugs, enhancing clinical outcomes across diverse patient groups. My goals is to expand collaborations with cancer researchers to advance developmental therapeutics.
Jacqueline Mays, DDS, PhD, MHSc – DT
Department: Dermatology
Research Interest: Complication of allogeneic hematopietic stem cell transplantation, a treatment used for many patients with hematologic malignancies. This research advances translational cancer research and improves outcomes and quality of life for cancer patient and survivors.
Lynn Schnapp, MD – TM
Department: Medicine (Chair)
Research Interest: How extracellular matrix remodeling regulates tissue injury, repair, and fibrosis, with a particular focus on the mechanisms governing collagen turnover and fibroblast behavior. Hope to foster new collaborations to extend discoveries into cancer models.
Laura Huffman, MD – CPC
Department: Obstetrics and Gynecology
Research Interest: Patterns of optimization of cancer care referral patterns for ovarian masses, ctDNA detection in endometrial cancer; and clinical trials for the treatment of gynecologic malignancies.
Lisa Strate, MD, MPH – CPC
Department: Medicine
Research Interest: Pathogenesis and prevention of diverticular disease, with an emphasis on modifiable risk factors and no surgical strategies for disease management. My research focuses on exposures and biologic pathways that are central to cancer prevention, including the lifestyle factors, systemic inflammation, metabolic dysfunction, and the gut microbiome.
