Research Activities
Approximately 15% of human cancers have a viral etiology, and six viruses
have been elucidated to be associated with human cancers. Among them, research
in the Virology Division is focused on the molecular mechanisms of oncogenesis
by the human papillomavirus (HPV). HPV is most frequently associated with
cervical cancers and also with some skin and head and neck cancers. Our study
also covers the DNA replication machinery in mammalian cells and stem cell
biology.
