ResearchinterestsMy research was focused on the studyof transcriptional regulation of genes involved in oncogenesis, hypoxia, andinherited diseases. Currently, I am interested in geneticepidemiology and I focus on associationstudies of gene polymorphisms with oncogenesis or multifactorial inheriteddiseases.
