Research Interest
My primary research focus is on the identification of predictive cancer biomarkers to optimize cancer therapy as a personalized medicine. I have developed the CONCORD and PDXGEM pipelines, which analyze gene expression patterns and gene co-expression networks across cancer cell lines, patient-derived tumor xenografts, and cancer patients. These pipelines enable the prediction of therapeutic response and facilitate drug repurposing. My recent research has centered on discovering molecular cancer biomarkers, conducting metagenomic and genetic association studies to improve cancer diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment outcomes.
