OverviewAI-generated summary

Caitlin Caperton's research focuses on cancer, particularly thyroid cancer and lung cancer. She has investigated the development of novel models for follicular thyroid cancer, exploring how these models progress to more aggressive forms like poorly differentiated and anaplastic thyroid cancer. Her work also examines the role of macrophages in the pathogenesis of follicular thyroid cancer, including their association with PD-L1 expression. Caperton has also contributed to understanding the lung metabolome in response to environmental exposures like 1,3-butadiene, relating these findings to human lung cancer phenotypes. Additionally, her research has explored rare metabolic disorders, such as late-onset urea cycle deficiency, in the context of medication side effects. Caperton has published 10 papers, with a total of 42 citations, and holds an h-index of 3. She collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, including Nicole Massoll and Samidha Tripathi.
