Our laboratory aims to identify dietary factors that can affect tumorigenesis and understand the molecular basis for the relationship between diet and colorectal cancer using preclinical model systems. In this regard, we will use genetically engineered mouse models of intestinal cancer, ex vivo intestinal organoid co-culture systems, and patient or mouse-derived organoid transplantation models.
