The Sikora Lab was launched in August 2016. With our research group focusing on invasive lobular carcinoma of the breast, we strive to create an environment where our staff and early-career researchers (ECRs; students, postdocs, and fellows) can advance both our collective research efforts and their own unique training and career development goals.
