Biography
As head of the Translational Breast Cancer Genomics Laboratory, Associate Professor Sherene Loi's research interest is to translate interesting scientific findings into innovative treatment approaches that may ultimately improve the clinical outcomes of breast cancer patients. To facilitate this, her laboratory uses genomic approaches to analyse breast cancer specimens to understand mechanisms of growth, immune evasion and progression. For patients, Assoc. Prof. Loi's interest lies in clinical trials evaluating targeted agents against specific breast cancer molecular subtypes.
