My laboratory focuses on understanding human health and biology using data science, data visualization and predictive modeling. A primary goal of this research is in analyzing and integrating diverse data modalities including bulk and single cell sequencing, phospho- and global-proteomics, spatial transcriptomics, metabolomics, imaging, and clinical data. In addition to collaborating extensively with clinicians and wet-lab biologists on the analysis of large, translationally focused datasets, our goal is to continually develop novel statistical and data integrative approaches to uncover important biological insights.
Our research spans multiple diseases, with current focus areas in autoimmunity, cardiovascular disease, and cancer. In autoimmunity, we use single cell omics to molecularly and spatially characterize lupus nephritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and psoriatic arthritis disease progression. Our cardiovascular research leverages collaborations with NYU's ISCHEMIA biorepository and other large clinical cohorts to identify molecular predictors of cardiovascular events and disease vulnerability. In cancer, building on our work with the Clinical Proteomic Tumor Analysis Consortium (CPTAC), we have developed computational tools that identify clinically relevant targets in proteogenomic studies of breast, endometrial, and other cancers. This work has expanded through the NIH Metastasis Research Network, where we apply spatial and single cell technologies to understand early mechanisms of metastasis.
