OAC News and Highlights
OAC Scientist Highlights: Drs. Marcia Haigis and Carla Kim
Dr. Marcia Haigis (a Professor of Cell Biology at Harvard Medical School) and Dr. Carla Kim (a Professor of Pediatrics and Genetics at Boston Children's Hospital) are investigating how molecular changes in alveolar cells contribute to lung cancer initiation during aging.
They recently found that epigenetic regulation that coordinates lung progenitor cells’ regenerative responses becomes dysregulated during aging and may contribute to the development of age-related lung diseases.
