Research Interest

Dr. Michael J. Gonzalez main research interest is the development of effective, non-toxic treatments for chronic diseases, especially cancer. Changing the biochemical conditions that promote, develop and sustain the malignant state can produce inhibition of malignant cell proliferation, increase aerobic metabolism and achieve re-differentiation. We are also interested in the development of non-toxic therapeutic strategies that enhance the effectiveness of other treatments or that reduce their toxicity.
