Cancer Research: Dr. Feng is Director of the Laboratory of Zebrafish Genetics and Cancer Therapeutics. Dr. Feng’s research interests focus on identifying novel genes and pathways that are essential for MYC-related tumor transformation and progression, particularly for T-Lymphoblastic Lymphoma/Leukemia, Neuroblastoma and Breast Cancer. The research strategy of Dr. Feng’s research is to combine the analysis of human cancer cells with the genetic and imaging capacities of the zebrafish system.

Current research areas in Dr. Feng’s laboratory include:
1) To determine the molecular mechanisms underlying tumor cell intravasation and tumor progression.
2) To identify novel genes and pathways that, when mutated, delay the initiation and progression of MYC-related cancers.
3) To test the identified genes’ therapeutic potential in treating MYC-related cancers and to characterize their molecular relevance to MYC.

The long-term goal of Dr. Feng’s research is to discover novel molecular therapies to target critical components of MYC-driven oncogenic pathways, thus providing treatment alternatives that are more specific and less toxic.

Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Accessibility

The Feng laboratory at Boston University (www.bu.edu/zgct) is committed to training the next generation of researchers throughout the world with all ethnicities and cultural backgrounds. Ever since the opening of the laboratory in October 2011, the Feng laboratory has already trained over thirty undergraduate researchers, ten graduate students, thirteen postdoctoral fellows, and nine visiting scientists – many of whom have gone on to pursue a career in academic institutes or industry. Among the fifty-four trainees that Dr. Feng mentored in the past five years, thirty-two are females, nine are underrepresented, and five are disabled. In addition, Dr. Feng has been leading drug discovery efforts as a co-leader for the past ten years in the zebrafish disease model society (ZDMS). Currently, Dr. Feng serves on the board of directors and as the chair of the diversity, equity, and inclusion committee in the ZDMS. She has been an active advocate in promoting trainee diversity and inclusion in her department, school of medicine, and the scientific community at large.
