HUDSON LAB

Georgetown University • Department of Oncology

Welcome to the Hudson Laboratory

Our laboratory is focused on understanding the lifestyle and inflammatory mechanisms underlying breast cancer metastasis, and the ultimate translation of these basic observations to human clinical studies.

Based within the Department of Oncology at Georgetown University Medical Center, our research group integrates biochemical pathways, cellular modeling, and patient cohort analysis to discover vulnerable checkpoints in metastatic dissemination.

Metastasis mechanisms

Investigating how tumor cells escape the primary site, colonize distant organs, and survive therapeutic pressure.

Inflammation & lifestyle factors

Defining the systemic microenvironmental and metabolic cues that accelerate metastatic progression.

Translational oncology

Bridging fundamental mechanistic discoveries to human clinical validation and targeted therapeutic strategies.

Principal Investigator
