Research Interests: 

The Frock laboratory is interested in elucidating mechanisms of DNA double-stranded break (DSB) repair and chromosome translocations.  We employ a high-throughput sequencing technology that identifies and maps cellular DSBs.  We are interested in further developing this technology to more fully quantify the DSB repair fates from targeted DSBs.  Our research disciplines are broad and cover aspects of molecular and cancer biology, bioinformatics. immunology, genome editing, and radiation biology.
