Graduate Education
Dr. Emery Bresnick, Advisor at UW Madison 1994-1999

Lloyd completed postdoctoral studies with Dr. Lou Staudt at the National Cancer Institute and is now a Senior Research Scientist, Abbott Laboratories. More information about Dr. Lam and his research can be found at: http://lymphochip.nih.gov/laml.html


Research Interests:

My research interest is to identify novel cancer therapeutic agents for lymphomas and leukemias and to study the molecular mechanism of these agents. The goal of these studies is to gain a better understanding in the regulation of gene expression and signaling pathways in normal and malignant lymphocytes.
