Tony Hollingsworth, Ph.D.
Pancreatic Cancer

Dr. Hollingsworth focuses his research on pancreatic cancer and other diseases of the pancreas, pancreatitis and cystic fibrosis.

Using modern techniques of molecular biology, biochemistry, cell biology and immunology, Dr. Hollingsworth and his colleagues work towards finding new therapies and methods of detecting pancreatic diseases. Several of Dr. Hollingsworth's main projects center on the study of MUC1, a glycoprotein which scientists believe plays an important role in the normal function of the pancreas. These studies shed light on the development of new antibodies and tumor vaccines for uses that target known tumor-associated antigens.

Dr. Hollingsworth is a professor in the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology and the Department of Pathology and Microbiology. He earned his Ph.D. in 1982 from Wake Forest University in Winston-Salem, N.C.
