My PhD is a translational project between natural product chemistry, drug discovery and cancer biology. Using chemical techniques (e.g. HPLC, NMR, and MS), I have isolated and characterized several new and exciting natural products, which display potent in vitro inhibition of prostate cancer cells. I have taken these exciting compounds and conducted mechanism of action studies using techniques such as DNA microarray, live cell imaging, cell cycle analysis, and immunofluorescence microscopy.
