As “Big Data” researchers, we both apply existing techniques and continuously work to improve them and create new methods. Much of our work to date has focused on prostate cancer, but we are increasingly applying the same techniques to cancers of the kidney, bone and connective tissue (sarcomas), brain, thyroid, ovary and other sites, and discovering fascinating commonalities across them.
Whether you are an external researcher, one of our collaborators, or someone hoping to join our team, we encourage you to use our tools and create issues for any problems you may encounter. Together with your feedback, we can improve our tools and make them more accessible for the next generation of researchers, who will use these techniques to cure cancer and improve human health and well-being in ways we can’t imagine today!
