Seminar with Christopher Chidley, PhD ( Duke University)
November 19 @ 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm
In-person only | hosted by Palmer Lab
The Chidley lab investigates the role of transporter proteins in nutrient and metabolite import/export and their impact on cell physiology and response to chemotherapeutics. The lab uses unbiased genetic screening in cell and animal models along with biochemistry, cell biology, and analytical chemistry tools to identify critical small molecule transporters across different environments, characterize their function, and explore how the tumor microenvironment impacts cancer metabolism. Our research aims to guide the development of metabolic strategies to suppress tumor growth, and aid precision medicine efforts by revealing determinants of drug sensitivity.
