Research Interest:

Dr. Miles group is interested in understanding and then targeting RNA changes in cancers with inactivated tumor-suppressor genes including lung, thyroid, and hematopoietic tumors. Using genome editing and omics profiling, they define the post-transcriptional mechanisms that sustain tumor initiation, growth, and metastasis. Targeting these novel mechanisms requires adapting RNA nanomedicine.
