Description of Research Interest

Our lab develops experimental and computational approaches to study tumor ecosystems. We determine which cell types are part of the tumor ecosystems, how these cell interact and how they form an ecosystem. We then use this information to study tumor biology and find relationships to clinical features. For example, we discovered novel macrophage phenotypes related to progression free survival (Cell, 2017).
