Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Lana Elkins investigates the accumulation of somatic cell mutations in organotypic airway cultures. Her recent publication in 2024 focused on the effects of repeat ethyl methanesulfonate treatment on these cultures, observing how it leads to an increase in somatic cell mutations without an expansion of mutations specific to bronchial carcinoma drivers. Elkins's work is situated within toxicological research, exploring the mechanisms of genotoxicity and carcinogenesis at the cellular level. She collaborates with researchers at the National Center for Toxicological Research, including Nan Mei, Barbara L. Parsons, Kelly L. Harris, and Xilin Li, with whom she has co-authored publications. Her current research activity indicates an ongoing engagement with these scientific questions.
