Research Summary:

My research mainly focus on evaluating the immunomodulatory responses by Triple negative breast cancer cells under differential conditions of amino acid availability and external beam radiation. I utilize the methods of metabolic reprogramming of cancer cells and associated stromal cells to augment radiation induced cytotoxic and immunogenic responses thus leading to developing novel therapy approaches.
