Didier Dréau, Ph.D.

CBES Area of Interest:

Dr. Dréau’s lab interests are centered on the biology of tumor metastasis. Specifically, we study tumor cell migration, the influences of the tumor microenvironment and the rate of metastasis. We seek to better understand key steps associated with the cancer progression and develop diagnostic and prognostic tools to improve patient care. To successfully achieve the long-term objectives, my research team is involved in ongoing collaborative and multidisciplinary efforts involving clinicians, biologists and engineers.

CBES Area of Expertise:

Modeling of solid cancer progression and metastasis; testing of specific targets associated with the angiogenic and immunologic mechanisms critical to tumor growth; optimization of drug delivery to prevent tumor progression.
