The central theme of the McGill University Thoracic and Upper GI Cancer Research Laboratories involves investigating the cellular, molecular, and genetic determinants of cancer metastasis from lung, esophageal and gastric malignancies.

 

In general, the fundamental research performed by trainees and technicians in the lab is heavily supported by a strong link to both translational and clinical research platforms, allowing a constant interplay between the bench and bedside.
