Selected
Publications
Our main scientific interests lie in modeling and understanding the dynamics of biological
systems through the lens of genomics. Our work focuses on three distinct topics:
Cancer, Infectious Diseases, and Electronic Health Records.
This page contains links to Selected Publications. We also have a full Publications Archive.
