Brief description Over one million deaths from stomach cancer occur annually. This often fatal disease can be caused by infection with the bacterium H. pylori. I am a molecular biologist seeking to understand how inflammation caused by H. pylori drives a genetic signature which can be used to predict stomach cancer risk. I will also study how a new family of stomach proteins can prevent tumour growth. My research aims to lead new initiatives for early detection and treatment of stomach cancer.
