Professor of Medicine, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and Brigham and Women’s Hospital, Harvard Medical School; Investigator, Howard Hughes Medical Institute; and Associate Director, Basic Science, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute/Harvard Cancer Center
William’s research seeks to understand how mutations affecting tumor-suppressor genes cause cancer. His laboratory is currently focused on studies of the VHL, RB-1, and p53 tumor suppressor genes. His long-term goal is to lay the foundation for new anticancer therapies based on the biochemical functions of such proteins.
