Career Trajectory
Bio
Dr. Daisy De Leon's main research interest is the role of IGF-2 in breast. The research team in Dr. De Leon's laboratory integrates the cellular and molecular studies performed in established breast cancer cell lines with animal models and tumor tissues analysis to advance the translational significance of the research. A current emphasis in Dr. De Leon's research laboratory is to determine the mechanisms that link IGF-II, diabetes and the breast cancer survival disparity observed among African American women. At present, our main research studies are focused on the mechanisms of IGF-II regulation of the mitochondria, the organelle at the intersection of breast cancer and diabetes. Dr. De Leon completed a bachelor's and a master's degree in science at the University of Puerto Rico. In 1987 she received a PhD in endocrinology from the University of California at Davis (UCD). During the three years as a postdoctoral fellow at Stanford University, Dr. De Leon's interest focused on IGFs in breast cancer. From 1990 to 1993 Dr. De Leon pursued further postdoctoral studies in breast cancer as a senior staff fellow in the National Cancer Institute at the NIH, Bethesda, MD. In August 1993, Dr De Leon accepted a position as assistant professor in the Department of Physiology at Loma Linda University School of Medicine. She successfully established the Breast Cancer Laboratory and in 1994 received the Pfizer Award for her research presentation at the American Society of Cell Biology. Her current research work in breast cancer has been funded by NIH and grants from the California Breast Cancer Research program, the Susan G. Komen breast cancer program, and private Foundations such as The Orser Foundation and VONS Cancer Program.
