Her primary areas of investigation include Cell biology, Extracellular matrix, Matrix metalloproteinase, Immunology and Cancer research. Her Cell biology research includes themes of Endocrinology, Internal medicine, Angiogenesis, Cellular differentiation and Morphogenesis. Her Extracellular matrix research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Integrin, Cell signaling, Signal transduction and Basement membrane.
The study of Matrix metalloproteinase is intertwined with the study of Downregulation and upregulation in a number of ways. Her Immunology research includes elements of Extracellular and Breast cancer. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Cancer cell, Cancer, Carcinogenesis and Cell type.
Her primary areas of study are Cell biology, Matrix metalloproteinase, Extracellular matrix, Cancer research and Molecular biology.
