Senior Associate Member
Broad Institute of Harvard and MIT
Dr. Hahn's research focuses on how cancer forms. He is interested in the mechanisms that allow cancer cells to reproduce indefinitely, including an enzyme called telomerase. He also works to develop new model systems to study cancer. In this interview Dr. Hahn discusses his research and the impact of the human genome project on cancer researchers.
