WELCOME TO THE WU LAB

We study the complex interactions between metabolism, epigenetics, and immune responses to understand and combat cancer

Starting in October 2024, our laboratory at the University of Massachusetts Chan Medical School will be dedicated to improving cancer treatment through innovative approaches. We focus on understanding how changes in metabolism and epigenetics contribute to cancer development and immune system evasion. Using techniques such as mouse models, cellular immunology, functional genomics, and single-cell profiling, we aim to uncover mechanisms that allow cancers to escape immune detection and develop new therapeutic strategies. Our goal is to translate these insights into novel, more effective, and personalized cancer therapies.
