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.
