Formation of tumours involves the expansion of neoplastic cells along with a microenvironment of soluble factors, non-malignant cells and extracellular matrix that supports their growth and spread.
My research work aims to integrate multi-omic molecular datasets of the ovarian cancer microenvironment to identify key components and pathways that sustain and promote tumours.
As part of the BCI/CRUK Bioinformatics Core Service, I provide bioinformatics expertise to cancer research programs by applying advanced computational methods and developing pipelines for analyzing large-scale cancer datasets, with the ultimate goal of identifying novel therapeutic targets and disease biomarkers.
