Julie R. Hens, Ph.D., is a recognized developmental biologist and cancer researcher currently working as a Research Scientist at Yale University. She has over 15 years of experience in the field, with a focus on mammary gland physiology and cancer biology. Her research has significantly contributed to understanding the molecular mechanisms involved in embryonic mammary gland and bone development, particularly the effects of dietary methionine restriction on cancer progression and bone development. Previously, she served as a Senior Scientist at the Orentreich Foundation for Advancement of Science, where she concentrated on the impact of methionine restriction in cancer research. As an Assistant Professor at St. Bonaventure University, she developed and taught courses in Genetics, Developmental Biology, and Cell Molecular Biology, fostering students' research capabilities through symposiums. At Yale, Dr. Hens is currently investigating the roles of PTHrP, CASR, GABBR1, and GABBR2 in mammary gland function and cancer.
