Profile
My lab is interested in the potential application of ML to medical oncology problems in the areas of population screening, diagnosis and prognosis the the domain of breast cancer. The following are representative studies from such collaborations with Dr. Greiner (i) We published works and built an online tool on the use of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) to identify ethnic ancestry of populations and this is an area of importance in population based association studies to identify populations who are at risk for disease predisposition. Association statistics tend to be inflated if the samples (cases or controls) are of mixed ancestry. (ii) We used SNPs to build predictive models for breast cancer risk. (iii) Traditionally used survival curves (Kaplan-Meier) represent population statistics and are not ideal to assess individual's prognosis (an area of emphasis in personalized medicine and genomics driven science). Patient Specific Survival Prediction curves were attempted to improve on the prognostication (disease free survival or overall survival) in breast cancer patients taking in to account clinical characteristics and genomics data. Similar patient based studies for identifying individual's risk for adverse drug reactions to chemotherapy treatments is also underway. Outputs
