Raju Chaganti, PhD

Emeritus

Professor

The goal of my research program at the Sloan Kettering Institute over the past three decades plus has been the understanding of the natural history of genomic instability in cancer cells and its implication to clinical behavior of tumors on the one hand, and to normal cellular developmental pathways on the other. Over this time period, the tools to identify, measure, and analyze the mechanisms of genomic instability have evolved remarkably.
