Projects

Defining the molecular genetic signature of the pleomorphic variant using high-resolution comparative genomic hybridisation, microarray-based comparative genomic hybridisation and chromogenic in situ hybridisation.

Analysing the immunohistochemical and molecular genetic features of metaplastic breast carcinomas with the main goal to define a new and more clinically and biologically significant taxonomy system for these lesions.

Analysing the biological and clinical impacts of BRCA1 inactivation in basal-like carcinomas.

Correlating amplification of specific oncogenes and loss of tumour suppressor genes and the pathological characteristics of breast carcinomas and identifying putative therapeutic targets for these lesions.
