Cancer discovery

There is an unmet need for effective ovarian cancer screening and diagnostic approaches that enable earlier-stage cancer detection and increased overall survival. We have developed a high-performing accessible approach that evaluates cfDNA …

We explore the phenomenon of somatic mutations, including those in cancer driver genes, that are present in healthy, normal-appearing tissues and their potential implications for cancer development. We also examine the landscape of these so…

Biological characteristics of tumors are heterogeneous, forming spectra in terms of several factors such as age at onset, anatomic spatial localization, tumor subtyping, and the degree of tumor aggressiveness (encompassing a neoplastic prop…

UNLABELLED: Epithelial stem cells accumulate mutations throughout life. Some of these mutants increase competitive fitness and may form clones that colonize the stem cell niche and persist to acquire further genome alterations. After a tran…

UNLABELLED: Although disordered chromatin organization has long been recognized as a feature of cancer, the molecular underpinnings of chromatin structure, epigenetic regulation, and their relationships to transcription are only beginning t…
