Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. The two-week OxTalks freeze period starts on Monday 2nd March. During this time, there will be no facility to publish or edit events. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period. Once Oxford Events launches, you will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
I am an Associate Professor of Medicine at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and Harvard Medical School. My lab is focused on statistical genetics approaches to understand the mechanisms of cancer risk, germline-somatic interactions, and response to treatment. We have led the development the Transcriptome-Wide Association (TWAS) and Regulome/Cistrome-Wide Association methodologies to identify cancer risk mechanisms using molecular and epigenetic data. We have also developed multiple methods to infer genetic data from large-scale tumor sequencing and incorporate Real World clinical outcomes for biomarker analyses, including the study of host influences on immunotherapy outcomes. Earlier in my training, I also worked on algorithms to identify genetic relatedness in large data, such as the GERMLINE method for efficient Identity By Descent detection.
