Biography

Biography

Dr. Khalil performed his PhD studies in the lab of Peter Friedl at the University of Wurzburg, Germany and Radboudumc, Nijmegen, The Netherlands. Here, Antoine identified that collective invasion is a predominant mode of local spread in breast cancer patients and characterized the role of connexin channels in organizing the invading cells into leader and follower cells. 

After finishing his PhD, dr. Khalil went to the lab of Johan de Rooij at the UMC Utrecht, where he pursued his investigations on cell invasion with focus on ECM mechanotransduction. Dr. Khalil investigated how cancer cells transduce biomechanical cues in the ECM and the underlying molecular mechanisms that promote invasive characteristics in particular subsets of cancer cells.

As of January 2022, Dr. Khalil functions as an assistant professor and is leading the group invasion of epithelial tumors at the Center for molecular medicine (CMM) in Utrecht UMC.
