OverviewAI-generated summary
Nicole Massoll's research focuses on the mechanisms and progression of thyroid cancers. Her work investigates how cellular and molecular components within the tumor microenvironment, such as fibroblasts and collagen remodeling, facilitate cancer advancement, particularly in BRAFV600E-driven thyroid cancers. She has also explored the role of macrophage abundance and PD-L1 expression in oncocytic thyroid cancer. Massoll has contributed to the development of novel models for studying thyroid cancer progression, including murine cell lines and models that progress to poorly differentiated and anaplastic thyroid cancer.
Her research also extends to diagnostic approaches for thyroid nodules, including the evaluation of microRNA expression analysis in conjunction with mutation panels. Massoll is involved in medical education, having contributed to the development of entrustable professional activities for cytopathology fellowships. Her scholarship metrics include an h-index of 27, with 77 total publications and 2,392 citations, designating her as a highly cited researcher. She leads a research group and collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences and the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville.
