Johnny is currently working on investigating the canonical Wnt signaling, cell-derived matrices, and the effects of Wnt molecules in these matrices on cell processes. He is also working on high-throughput drug screening of cancer cells encapsulated in a 3D microenvironment to better mimic physiological conditions. In his free time, he enjoys listening to music and watching TV shows.
