Eleanor Chen's main research interest is understanding the pathogenesis of cancer using zebrafish and mammalian experimental systems. Her current research focuses on dissecting the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying pediatric rhabdomyosarcoma, particularly key events driving tumor progression, relapse, and metastasis. The laboratory utilizes chemical genetics, gene editing technology, functional genomics, and human cell-based assays, along with zebrafish xenograft and mouse models, to identify and characterize key driver events in rhabdomyosarcoma. In addition to her research, Dr. Chen has clinical research interests in bone and soft tissue pathology. She has been recognized for her contributions to the field and is board certified in Anatomic Pathology. Dr. Chen holds an academic appointment as an Associate Professor in the Department of Pathology at the University of Washington in Seattle, where she has been active in both research and clinical practice.
