My group developed the first systems-level synthesis of pathway and network activity across species and platforms to discover 4 common self-renewal pathways in acute myeloid leukemia in mouse and man. Defining pathways by correlated activity, I discovered large scale interaction between pathways and known Alzheimer’s Disease genes. Expanding pathway correlation to drug responses and diseases we established a powerful new paradigm by using pathways in children resilient to sepsis to successfully discover drugs that drive resilience in a mouse model. This work has made it possible, for the first time, to systematically define and drug the pathways that control disease.

Using network relationships to understand influence of key regulatory miRNAs I was co-discoverer of the role of miR-24 in inhibiting cell proliferation by targeting E2F2 and MYC and the role of miR-34a as a regulator of growth factor signaling. I was co-discoverer of the role of proteasome degradation in controlling proliferation in breast cancer cells. This has established the role of integrative network analysis in functional understanding of micro-RNA’s
