Treating a Devastating Disease
As a physician/scientist, Dr. Terek has worked on chondrosarcoma in the laboratory for over 20 years, having studied and analyzed these tumors for mutations in classic tumor suppressor genes, mechanisms of chemotherapy resistance, and regulation of metastatic pathways. As a surgeon, he performs limb-sparing surgeries to remove bone and soft tissue tumors and to then reconstruct the musculoskeletal system.
