​COMPUTATIONAL CANCER BIOLOGY LABORATORY

Picture
​

​Our interdisciplinary research utilizes novel machine learning techniques and cutting-edge genomic and imaging technologies, to characterize complex populations of interacting cells in the tumor microenvironment as well as their underlying circuitry.

Our lab is primarily affiliated with the Biomedical Engineering Department and the Irving Institute for Cancer Dynamics (IICD) at Columbia University. We are also affiliated with the Computer Science Department, Data Science Institute and the Herbert Irving Comprehensive Cancer Center.
