BIOMEDICAL IMAGING
BRAIN & COGNITIVE ENGINEERING

We analyze a large number of cancer genomes using multiple omics approaches to characterize various kinds of germline/somatic alterations in many different human cancer types. In order to understand somatic mosaicism, heterogeneity, and evolution in cancer, we also use single-cell genomics approaches.
