Laboratory of Biosignaling & Therapeutics KU Leuven
The Laboratory of Biosignaling & Therapeutics investigate cellular signal transduction pathways at the molecular level. One of our major goals is to identify and develop novel biomarkers or therapeutic targets for human diseases. The current focus is on the (mis)regulation of chromatin signaling, DNA repair and cell division in cancer cells by enzymes known as protein phosphatases.
