Assistant Professor of Pediatrics Emory School of Medicine, A major focus of my research is to understand the tumor compositional landscape. I am interested in studying the dynamics between different cell types within the tumor microenvironment. I am using single cell transcriptome analysis to characterize the expression profiles of individual cells and delve into the molecular pathways that drive these tumors.
Recent developments in cell capturing and sequencing technologies allow us to profile thousands of individual cells and study their transcriptional profiles in great detail. We are isolating single cells from primary tumors and simultaneously studying their transcriptomes and cell surface protein expression profiles to look for new molecular targets/pathways for therapeutic intervention.
