About the Lab
The Feng Yang lab's research involves the investigation of the molecular mechanisms underlying therapy-resistance of human cancers, tumor microenvironment - prostate cancer interaction, and developing novel transgenic models for human prostate cancer. The lab is currently funded by the National Cancer Institute/NIH, the Department of Defense Prostate Cancer Research Program, and the Cancer Prevention & Prevention Institute of Texas.
