Faculty Bio

My lab studies tyrosine kinase signaling pathways that regulate cell motility, tissue invasion and inflammation. We currently have projects focusing on mast cells, that produce a wide array of mediators that can remodel tissues during immune responses and regulate tumour progression. We also study contributions of F-BAR proteins in metastatic cancers using cell and mouse models.

Research Interests:

Defining targets and new therapies in metastatic cancers

The Craig lab has several projects related to molecular mechanisms of cancer progression, immune suppression, and metastasis:

Tumour suppressor miRNA targets and pathways
Developing new tools to target actin-driven cancer metastasis
Targeting immune suppression pathways in metastatic cancers
Functional genomic screening to identify vulnerabilities in inflammatory breast cancer
