The currentresearch is centered on understanding and characterization of cell response to pulsed electric fields treatments, with particular emphasis on nanosecond-duration pulses and cell death mechanisms.
Main topics of the research include:
1) escalation of cell sensitivity to pulsed electric field (PEF) for advancement of PEF-mediated tissue and tumor ablation. ref1ref2ref3
2) mechanisms of the PEF-triggered cell death, characterization of the cell death pathways ref1
3) PEF-induced communication between the cells
