Overview

About the Huang Lab

The Huang Lab at UT Health San Antonio is a basic and translational science research lab focused on cancer biology, metabolism, immunology, hematology, and therapeutic development.

Led by Dr. Gang Huang, the lab studies mechanisms that drive both blood-related cancers and solid tumors while building translational pathways that move promising discoveries toward products, startups, and clinical impact.

The lab’s work spans hematologic malignancies, solid-tumor immunotherapy, cancer-associated cachexia, mitochondrial metabolism, and translational product development, with a consistent focus on connecting rigorous biology to therapies that can improve patient outcomes.

The Huang Lab at UT Health San Antonio is a basic and translational cancer research group within the MD Anderson Mays Cancer Center at UT Health San Antonio. Our team integrates hematology and solid tumor biology with immunology and metabolism to uncover mechanisms and design interventions. We advance cell and biologic therapies, including CAR T‑cell approaches for solid tumors. We also conduct research in trauma and military health. We move discoveries toward clinical impact through product development and collaborations with clinicians and industry. Education and mentorship are core to our mission. We train students, postdoctoral fellows, and early‑career scientists in rigorous, multidisciplinary research. Together, we aim to deliver therapies and technologies that improve patient outcomes.
