Dr. Katzenellenbogen's research interests include:
My research focuses on the fundamental mechanisms by which high-risk HPV infections drive cancer development and progression in host cells. I focus on the collaboration of the high-risk HPV oncogenes, E6 and E7, with cellular proteins to dysregulate key pathways and genes that are shared among infection-associated and non-infection associated cancers. I also conduct research on the synergy between HPV and HIV in accelerating cervical cancer development in Uganda.
