Bioinformatics for Precision Oncology - Online Training Program, Summer 2019

eliabrodsky — Wed, 05 Jun 2019 15:04:41 -0500

The bioinforamtics for precision oncology online course provides an opportunity to learn about bioinformatics methods used in precision oncology research and practice. As a subset of precision medicine, precision oncology deals with molecular factors involved in the biological rpocesses that lead to cancer and can help diagnose, treat or prevent this disease. Oncology is driven by data, often times generated using Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) that helps us study the genomic and transcriptomic sub-cellular processes.

The goal of our research is to interpret and distill this complexity through accurate analysis and modeling of molecular pathways, particularly those in which malfunctions lead to the manifestation of disease. We are inventing integrative methods for systems-level pathway modeling through integrative analysis of genome-scale datasets. We apply these approaches in studying challenging biological problems, such as how pathways function in diverse cell types and how they change dynamically.
