Sofia Ferreira
Postdoctoral Scholar, Radiation Biology
BioCancer Biology Scientist focused on improving treatment options on refractory tumors, primarily pancreatic cancer. My research focuses on uncovering innovative strategies to enhance the responsiveness of pancreatic cancer to existing treatments through fundamental research and preclinical approaches:
1.Investigate key molecular pathways in pancreatic cancer using in vivo, organelle-specific omics to identify new therapeutic targets
2.Identify unique drivers and tumor-stroma crosstalk across distinct pancreatic cancer subtypes
3.Exploit tumor cell innate immunity pathways to enhance pancreatic cancer responses to immunotherapy -

Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy lab has two main goals: to understand the regulation of mitosis and to understand the systems-level logic of simple signaling circuits. We often make use of Xenopus laevis oocytes, eggs, and cell-free extracts for both sorts of study. We also carry out single-cell fluorescence imaging studies on mammalian cell lines. Our experimental work is complemented by computational and theoretical studies aimed at understanding the design principles and recurring themes of regulatory circuits.
