The Lunt Lab focuses on understanding the role of metabolism in supporting cancer proliferation, heterogeneity, and metastasis. We combine powerful mass spectrometry, cell biology, genetic models of cancer, and fluorescent agents to investigate alterations in this complex disease. We aim to rationally design more effective, personalized therapies for cancer based on metabolic targeting # Education * Ph.D. 2010, Chemistry, Princeton University * B.S. 2005, Chemistry with Highest Honors, Lebanon Valley College # Previous Appointments * DoD Visionary Postdoctoral Fellow, 2012-15 * Postdoctoral Fellow, 2010-15, Massachusetts Institute of Technology # Links * [Lunt Lab News](https://sophialuntlab.natsci.msu.edu/news.aspx) * [Lunt Lab Website](https://sophialuntlab.natsci.msu.edu/) * [Google Scholar Citations](https://scholar.google.com/citations?hl=en&user=HH6S22EAAAAJ)
