Cancer Research Interest
- Disease Site Focus: Brain, Breast, Multiple Myeloma
- Research Focus Area: Informatics
- Type of Research: Clinical
- Research Interest Statement: A brief and broad description is that I work on cancer genomics, radiomics and bioinformatics. I have a long history of working onmultiple myeloma, which I am continuing, and am also beginning a project involving gliomas. My specific contributions to projectsare bioinformatic, mostly sequencing analysis, and I'm expanding into imaging analysis and machine learning.
