My laboratory specializes in employing a diverse range of modern techniques in quantitative and functional genomics, as well as quantitative proteomics, with a strong emphasis on translational implications. Our primary goal is to decipher chromatin dynamics associated with cancer progression and resistance, aiming to identify means for therapeutically targeting new vulnerabilities in cancer. Our work spans across all technical facets, from molecular biology isolation/enrichment methods to library preparation, and extends subsequently to computational data processing, analysis, and integration. Within the IQCB, I hope to explore collaborative opportunities and knowledge exchange within our shared field of interest.
