Biography
Thomas E Massey is currently working as Professor of Biomedical And Molecular Sciences, Queens University. He has authored and co-authored multiple Peer-reviewed scientific papers and presented works at many national and International conferences.
Research Interest
"Dr. Massey's research focusses on: the importance of metabolism of drugs and environmental chemicals on the toxicity of these compounds; the consequences of carcinogen-induced DNA damage; the ability of certain chemicals to change DNA repair activity; and the mechanisms by which toxic chemicals accumulate in target cells and initiate cell damage. Several different organs are studied, but there is particular emphasis on the lung and the colon as targets. "
