4 months ago
Dr. Putluri's laboratory is dedicated to investigating cause role of cancer progression, with a particular focus on bladder cancer research. Our lab has established a robust research program in this field, encompassing the characterization of metabolic alterations associated with smoking in bladder cancer, exploring health disparities, and elucidating the role of xenobiotic metabolism in bladder cancer progression. We employ a diverse array of pre-clinical models including cancer cell lines, 3D spheroid cultures, orthotopic xenografts, patient-derived xenografts (PDXs), and genetically engineered mouse models (GEMMs). We are actively seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Associate who shares our passion for translational tumor research. For further insight into our work, please consider reading the most recent paper published by our laboratory (Nat Commun. 2024; PMID:
