Research

Dr. Kalinichenko's laboratory is investigating the transcriptional regulation of epithelial and endothelial cell functions during lung embryonic development and lung carcinogenesis. The primary emphasis of the studies is on the Winged helix/Forkhead Box (Fox) proteins and their role in regulating cell signaling pathways required for cellular proliferation, differentiation, motility and survival. The ultimate goal of the research program is to identify, and increase understanding of currently unknown mechanisms that cause human lung malformations and promote lung cancer formation.
