Neil Bhowmick, PhD, examines the role of tissue fibroblastic cells in cancer initiation and progression. He studies the role of the tumor microenvironment in prostate cancer progression and mediators of metastatic progression through the use of in vivo model systems. Dr. Bhowmick is currently working on candidate therapeutics to address host-tumor interactions and the development of a biomarker platform to help distinguish indolent and aggressive cancer.
