My
research interests include the mathematical modeling of
complex diseases such as cancer using interacting networks
of genes
and proteins. Specific areas of interest include the molecular
diagnosis of cancer, molecular prediction of clinical outcomes
in cancer, molecular subtyping of cancer, whole-genome
detection of genes and pathways that modulate cancer progression
using
DNA microarrays, and the systems biology of cancer involving
the fusion of multiple genomic data types for the enhanced
modeling of cancer as a complex dynamical system.
