Kaitlin Samocha is an Assistant Professor in the Center for Genomic Medicine at Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School. She is on the steering committee for the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD), one of the world’s largest publicly...
Our lab is interested in studying the mechanisms of spatio-temporal tumor evolution, progression and therapy response. Our current research focuses on scalable inference methods and modeling of single-cell genomic and in situ imaging data to study the co...
Our group develops and applies efficient and accurate statistical methods and computational tools to understand the genetic/genomic basis of human disease risk and progression using large-scale biobanks. We also leverage high-dimensional omics data to...
My lab studies the development and evolution of cancer through analysis of intratumoral genetic, transcriptional, and immunological heterogeneity. Our work lies at the intersection of computational biology, molecular biology, and medicine: Using...
The Rheinbay laboratory concentrates on identifying and functionally characterizing non-coding drivers in the sequences of tumor genomes through development of novel analysis strategies and collaborations with experimental investigators.
Most known...
Genetic studies for a wide variety of traits and diseases have grown exponentially over the last decade, providing fine-scale biological insights into disease mechanisms. However, these genetic studies have been vastly Eurocentric in composition. We have...
The Smillie Lab uses systems approaches to understand the mechanisms of host-microbiome interactions. Our research interests are broad, spanning mucosal immunology, microbiome evolution and ecology, and tissue biology, while relying on a combination of...
Genomics of human disease. We are interested in the functional consequences of the complete spectrum of genomic variation on human disease, with a particular focus on congenital birth defects, autism, neurodevelopmental disorders, and diverse...
