Moving etiologic findings to clinical applications

"The Tragedy of the (Data) Commons" - Dr. Hendler
DCEG Seminar
The tragedy of the commons, first proposed by William Lloyd in 1833, is an economic problem in which every individual has an incentive to consume a resource at the expense of every other individual with no way to exclude anyone from consuming. It results in overconsumption, under investment, and ultimately depletion of the resource.

Computational Biology of DNA-Repair in Adult and Pediatric Cancers - Dr. Glodzik
We extended the computational methods for analysis of mutation signatures in order to describe patterns of chromosomal rearrangements. In particular, the rearrangement signatures enable the assessment of proficiency of homologous recombination (HR). HRDetect, an algorithm we developed, predicts probability of HR-deficiency, and is based on holistic portrayal of mutational signatures across different classes of somatic mutations.

Harnessing Rare Somatic Variants for Tumor Classification - Shen
Biostatistics Branch Seminar Series
In recent years there has been extensive investigation of the mutational landscape of the cancer genome from large-scale sequencing studies. However, the bulk of the attention has focused on major cancer genes, and especially the hot spot mutations in these genes at which mutations occur frequently.

Knowledge Discovery with Bayesian Rule Learning Methods for Actionable Biomedicine - Mr. Balasubramanian
DCEG Seminar
Discovery of precise biomarkers are crucial for improved clinical diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic decision-making. They help improve our understanding of the underlying physiological (and pathophysiological processes) within an individual.
