We study how micro-environmental and epigenetic mechanisms drive cancer cells into dormancy. We seek to control this biology to prevent and treat metastasis. https://einsteinmed.edu/faculty/16974/julio-aguirre-ghiso
What a pleasure to have hosted Dr. Joan Massague from MSKCC @mskcancercenter.bsky.social who visited us all day and delivered an exceptional lecture for our @einsteinmededu.bsky.social Montefiore Einstein Comprehensive Cancer Center distinguished lecture series. Thanks for visiting!

Yesterday I had the privilege of participating in a brainstorming session with the leadership of the NR2F1 Foundation to determine if our NR2F1 agonists may be of use to help individuals with the various mutations in this gene. Congratulations for the work you’re doing.
