Hello! you have reached the official blog spot of our lab which is based at the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio, Department of Urology - our main area of study is prostate cancer, nutrition, and epigenetics - but we also study changes in gene expression in benign-prostatic hyperplasia - we have made this blog so as we can share thoughts about the lab, papers that are just published and anything else remotely relevant at any time, and from anywhere!
