Dr. Stephen Hahn studies the molecular machines that make mRNA. At any given time, only certain genes are copied into mRNA because only those proteins are needed for specific cellular functions. Our genes act as a recipe book for our cells. They contain the instructions for making all the proteins that cells need — but there are only two copies of each gene, and our cells need hundreds if not thousands of copies of a protein to function properly. To address this, cells make many copies of a gene, which can be used by the protein-building factories as protein-making instructions. These copies are called messenger RNA, or mRNA.

Dr. Hahn seeks to understand how the mRNA-producing machines work, and how cells turn them on and off at the right time. Alterations in this process occur in many human diseases, making it critical for researchers to better understand this fundamental process.

Dr. Vikram Mathews, MBBS, MD, DM, FASc is a Professor at The Christian Medical College. Dr. Vikram Mathews having completed medical school training at Christian Medical College, spent two years in primary care hospitals which included a rural hospital where he was one of two physicians. This exposure helped provide him with a realistic perspective on the challenges that face medical care delivery in our country. He subsequently completed his post-graduation in General Medicine from the same institution where he had done undergraduate training.

Working in hematology, as with Vikram's rural hospital experience, it was clearly evident to him that for a number of hematological conditions, especially acute leukemia, a major challenge was the cost of therapy and supportive care. The majority of patients are in a self-paying system and can not afford such expensive therapies. For this reason, he felt it was important to focus on cost-effective therapy rather than blindly apply algorithms that had evolved in a developed country setting. Research, both clinical and basic science, was critical for him to develop strategies that were effective and relevant to the patient population

Dr. Dafna Bar-Sag's research is the study of the transformation of normal cells to cancer cells, which is tightly linked to alterations in signaling cascades that control cell proliferation, differentiation and motility. The research in her laboratory focuses on a signaling axis that is deregulated in more than 30% of human cancers due to the mutational activation of the GTP-binding protein Ras.

Dr. Bar-Sag is interested in defining the contribution of specific molecular perturbations in this signaling axis to cancer initiation and progression with the ultimate goal of utilizing this information for the development of novel diagnostic and therapeutic strategies. Ongoing projects in her research include the development of cell and animal-based models to study the role of inflammation in Ras-driven tumorigenesis, the characterization of feedback mechanisms that control the functional output of the Ras signaling axis and the use of chemical biology approaches to identify new modalities for therapeutic targeting.

With a translational approach, her preclinical work has included the investigation of conformal radiation in combination with targeted anti-angiogenic therapy in a murine intracranial brain tumor model with serial multiparametric MRI and biofluid measures to discover promising biomarkers of response to guide personalized treatment of brain tumors.

The findings from this preclinical work has led to several ongoing clinical trials evaluating serial MRI biomarkers in patients treated with radiosurgery as well as a Phase I dose-escalation trial of anti-angiogenic agent (Sunitinib) in concurrently with radiosurgery. In terms of image-guided therapy, Dr. Chung has also lead the early clinical evaluation of a novel image-guided Gamma Knife radiosurgery unit that incorporates cone-beam CT and infrared intrafraction motion-monitoring.
