Research Contributions

Merrin Man Long Leong has made significant contributions to several areas of cancer research, particularly focusing on nasopharyngeal carcinoma and the impact of Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) on epigenetic regulation. Leong's work includes exploring mitochondrial targeting for cancer photodynamic therapy, identifying molecular subgroups and mutational signatures in nasopharyngeal carcinoma, and examining the role of EBV in histone modifications and DNA damage repair pathways. These studies contribute to a deeper understanding of cancer biology and potential therapeutic approaches.
