3. Studies on prediciton of response and resistance to chemotherapy and radiation therapy in gastrointestinal cancer.
4. Leading International Clinical Trial: Neo-AEGIS, comparing preoperative chemotherapy and chemoradiation prior to resection of oesophageal adenocarcinoma. Translational studies focusing on gene arrays, miRNA, and PET imaging as predictors of response.
