Their scientific interests focus, among other things, on studying the molecular basis of inflammatory and neoplastic diseases of the skin, including basal cell carcinoma, which is the most common malignant skin tumour. Their research may contribute to the development of new anti-cancer drugs in the future. The researchers are also working on new applications of dermoscopy in diagnosing cancerous lesions.
