Biography and Research Information
OverviewAI-generated summary
Dr. Eric Wong's research spans a diverse range of topics, from cancer biology to geriatric care. At John Brown University, his work in oncology focuses on acute myeloid leukemia (AML), glioma, and cancer metastasis, including the development of cancer immunotherapies and biomarkers. Recent publications highlight his investigations into the molecular dependencies of AML, specifically the role of menin-MLL1 interaction and mutant NPM1 in oncogenic transcription. Wong also explores novel therapeutic strategies, such as MET-targeting antibody-drug conjugates to overcome drug resistance in pancreatic cancer. Complementing his work in cancer, Wong conducts research in geriatric medicine, with a focus on frailty in older adults, health systems, and economic evaluations. His work in this area includes studies of interventions like "hospital at home" programs and deprescribing fall-risk increasing drugs.
