Project Accepting Students
We are seeking graduate students to join our leading-edge integrative genomics initiatives aimed at identifying pathological genetic aberrations and immunological targets from multi-dimensional cancer genomics datasets. The research project for this rotation will interface the “dark side” of cancer genetics with cancer pathobiology and immunobiology. Specifically, the student will investigate a cryptic class of adjacent gene rearrangements in more aggressive and therapy-resistant forms of breast and/or ovarian cancers, examine their function in cancer progression and immunotherapy resistance, as well as develop novel therapeutics.
