Dr. Antonio Amelio is the Vice Chair of Research in Head and Neck Oncology at the H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center & Research Institute. He oversees the Amelio Lab within the Cancer Biology & Evolution Program, focusing on the molecular mechanisms behind tumor development and progression. His lab employs light-based technologies and bioinformatics to examine cell signaling, gene expression, and their impact on cancer cell behavior. Dr. Amelio's interdisciplinary research particularly targets adaptive stress signaling networks in oral and head and neck cancers, aiming to understand these pathways to inform future therapeutic interventions.
