OverviewAI-generated summary

Forouh Kalantari's research focuses on the molecular mechanisms driving cancer progression, particularly in clear cell ovarian cancer. Her work investigates the role of cystathionine gamma-lyase in regulating hypoxia-inducible factor 1-alpha (HIF-1α) expression, a key factor in tumor growth and survival under low-oxygen conditions. Kalantari also explores vulnerabilities in cancer cells, such as the identified KEAP1 perturbation as a potential weakness in ARID1A-deficient cells. Her publications also address aspects of radiation oncology practice, including contouring accuracy in residency training and the dosimetric comparison of treatment planning systems for stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT). She has a notable publication record with 59 total publications and a h-index of 8, with ongoing activity in her research areas.
