Hangauer Lab Focus
The Hangauer lab focuses on understanding the fundamental mechanisms of cell survival of cytotoxic stress. We seek to discover how cells survive prolonged exposure to various physiological forms of cytotoxic stress, the adaptations which occur as a result of this, and how this affects human health and disease. We also seek to understand why certain cells are sensitized to nonapoptotic death pathways including ferroptosis and cuproptosis.
