Cellular signal transduction pathways determine whether or not tumour cells divide and proliferate.

Childhood Cancer Research

Studying these pathways is central to understanding tumour cell biology. Dr. Sorensen’s research focuses on targeting these pathways as a treatment strategy, while minimizing effects on normal growth. Dr. Sorensen's team investigates how mutations disrupt signal transduction in solid tumours and leukemias, with the goal of identifying new therapeutic targets.
