Meet Mariia, a co-investigator on Rosetta
Dr Mariia Yuneva’s cancer metabolism research began at Cold Spring Harbour Laboratories in New York, where she studied the relationship between oncogenic transformation and nutrient requirements. Mariia then moved to the University of California, San Francisco, to evaluate the relationship between oncogenic transformation and metabolic changes in vivo in mouse models of tumorigenesis.
Since 2013, Mariia has led a group at the Francis Crick Institute. In the Grand Challenge, Mariia’s group will provide in vivo and ex vivo models of mouse and human primary breast cancers and their metastases.
