Modern biomedical research generates huge (and ever-increasing amounts) of “omics” data. Bioinformatic and computational scientists bring sense to this data, allowing us to understand the genetic and molecular processes that control human cell development and which can go wrong in the presence of human diseases.
We are a team of scientists who develop new computational, statistical and AI strategies to interpret and understand modern omics data.
In collaboration with biomedical scientists across the institute, we use these methods to study human diseases, for example the origin of cancer, how cancers evolve and become resistant to treatment, immunological disorders and the way that patients response to different treatments.
