PRECISION ONCOLOGY &
GENOMIC VARIATION
The clinical interpretation of genomic variants in disease is contingent upon the accurate assessment of the variant allele frequency in the host population. The availability of genome data is largely skewed, with many subpopulations underrepresented in genome databases. Working with collaborators worldwide, we are investigating genome variations in diverse populations and their role in cancer while creating aggregate databases to make these data broadly accessible. By developing computational platforms with public web-based access, we are making these diverse datasets accessible to enhance their utility in patient care and genomic medicine.
