Profiles in "Cancer" Expertise Area
- Dr. Bussey is a cancer cytogeneticist and applied bioinformatician developing tools to help oncologists fully integrate genomics into their current medical data streams to realize the promise of precision medicine.
- Dr. Liu investigates clinical and molecular signatures of human diseases, and develops novel computational methods to discover biomarkers for early diagnosis and accurate prediction of therapeutic responses for individuals.
- Nikkhah's laboratory is currently focused on the integration of innovative biomaterial and microscale technologies to create biomimetic model tissue constructs for regenerative medicine and disease modeling applications.
- Dr. Cook-Deegan's research interests include science policy, health policy, biomedical research, cancer and intellectual property.
- Buetow is a human genetics and genomics researcher who leverages computational tools to understand complex traits such as cancer, liver disease, and obesity.
- Junwen Wang is a Professor of Biomedical Informatics working on bioinformatics, computational genomics and precision medicine.
- Interests include close relationships and health, couple dynamics in cancer, caregiving, dyad-based health behavior interventions, ecological momentary assessment, natural language processing, and the gut microbiome.
- Grant McFadden directs the Biodesign Center for Immunotherapy, Vaccines, and Virotherapy (BCIVV) at ASU. The McFadden lab studies how poxviruses that cause immunosuppression interact with the host immune system.
- Plaisier works to answer open questions about human diseases by turning large-scale patient data into integrative models that can be used to describe novel disease biology or discover drug targets.
- Xiaojun Tian is an Associate professor studying gene regulatory circuits using synthetic biology and mathematical modeling; recipient of NIH MIRA and NSF CAREER awards.
