About Renee Demarest

The primary goal of my lab is to delineate the molecular pathways required for the formation, maintenance, and relapse of the various subsets of T-ALL. We utilize bone marrow reconstitution and genetically engineered murine models in order to generate T-ALL in various genetic backgrounds and modulate the expression of endogenous and exogenous genes in order to identify critical therapeutic targets. In addition, we are developing novel methods to treat various murine models of cancer with human equivalent chemotherapeutic regimens in order to increase the translational success of new therapeutics to the clinic.
