We are delighted to welcome Assoc. Prof. Dr. Khoo Boon Yin as Editor-in-Chief of Current Cancer Research (CCR).
Dr. Khoo is an Associate Professor at the Institute for Research in Molecular Medicine (INFORMM), Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM). Her research focuses on molecular mechanisms in cancer, cancer biology, yeast-based compound screening, cancer–stem cell interactions, and the functional roles of specific genes in disease development.
Her research activities span fundamental and translational cancer biology, with particular emphasis on understanding disease mechanisms and identifying biologically relevant targets for further therapeutic and diagnostic investigation. Through multidisciplinary molecular research, her work contributes to a deeper understanding of cancer progression and potential strategies for improving disease management.
Dr. Khoo’s expertise in molecular oncology, cancer biology, compound screening, and gene function will significantly strengthen the scientific quality and research direction of CCR. We warmly welcome her to the Editorial Team and look forward to her leadership in advancing the journal as an international platform for impactful cancer research.
