Di Genoma Lab

Di Genoma Lab is a new laboratory with the goal of using genomics, computational algorithms, and other analytical tools to understand the root cause of cancers and develop treatments for them. Here, we investigate the use of genomics for the diagnosis and treatment of cancer. The Di genoma Lab seeks to create new knowledge about how cancers develop and grow based on these large data sets generated by genome sequencing. More specifically, the lab is focused on developing new computational methods and automating the analysis of large amounts of data in order to develop “new ways to fight cancer”. We hope to answer questions such as” How do cancers evolve? What are they doing?" By analyzing DNA sequences from a patient, we can gain important insights into cancer progression. The lab is led by Dr. Alex Di Genova, a doctor in complex system engineering with expertise in genomics and computational biology. The lab currently includes one postdoctoral fellow and two research engineers.
