Vivek M. Rangnekar, Ph.D. is Professor and Alfred Cohen Chair in Oncology Research in the Department of Radiation Medicine and Associate Director of the Markey Cancer Center at the University of Kentucky. His laboratory studies the molecular cross-talk between oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes in an effort to tilt the balance in favor of tumor suppressor function. Dr. Rangnekar originally discovered and identified the tumor suppressor protein Par-4/PAWR in 1993.
