Ted Brown is a professor in the Department of Physiology at the University of Toronto, focusing on reproductive endocrinology and infertility. His research explores the mechanisms of ovarian cancer, specifically the biological pathways involved in its progression. Brown's work has importantly contributed to the understanding of high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC), a significant type of ovarian cancer with a high mortality rate. His studies have revealed that HGSOC may arise from the fallopian tube epithelium and have involved analysis of gene expression patterns and the effects of androgens on ovarian cancer cells. His lab investigates the roles of glucocorticoid receptors and androgen-associated proteins, such as NCoA4, in signaling pathways related to ovarian cancer. His research methodology includes various techniques such as cell culture, immunohistochemistry, and gene expression analysis. Brown also teaches courses related to physiology and reproductive biology.
