Strongin Lab

Current research in the Strongin group addresses a range of interdisciplinary challenges. Projects include the investigation of the chemical reactions and aerosol profiles of electronic cigarettes, including both tobacco and cannabis products. His group is also developing functional molecular probes that selectively target pancreatic cancer as well as enzymes and biochemical pathways involved in oxidative stress and chronic disease.
