Q. Wang Lab
Welcome to Wang Laboratory, led by Qiang Wang, PhD, at the Cedars-Sinai Department of Medicine, Gastroenterology/Hepatology Research Program and Pancreatic Research Program.
The Wang Lab studies the signals that control cell growth and division and how deregulation of these signals may contribute to the development of human cancers. Current areas of research include metastasis, tissue regeneration and repair, inflammation and microenvironment, cancer resistance to therapeutics and biomarkers for diagnosis and prognosis of human cancer. A major interest of the Wang Laboratory is to validate and develop novel targeted therapy for cancer.
The Wang Laboratory is affiliated with the Gastroenterology/Hepatology Research Program, Pancreatic Research Program, Department of Medicine and CS Cancer.
