Frank McCormick is the director and associate dean of the University of California, San Francisco, where he is also the David A. Wood Distinguished Professor of Tumor Biology and Cancer Research. His research is focused on signal transduction pathways in cancer cells, and ways of treating cancer based on these pathways. His primary interest has been the RAS pathway, though his lab has also focused on metabolic differences between cancer cells and normal cells, and defects in cancer proteins related to mitotic checkpoints.
