Research Interest
Using microfluidic techniques and advanced molecular biology, our laboratory develops technologies to improve efficiency and accessibility of state-of-the-art methods, such as:
1) Single-cell genomics, where genetic information is gleaned cell by cell. This approach contrasts with conventional strategies that average measurements over cell populations. Averages miss information about critical cell sub-populations that play a critical role in tissue homeostasis or in the development of diseases such as cancer.
2) Spatial genomics, where the spatial context of sequences is preserved to study the crosstalk between tumor and stroma
3) digital PCR for biomarker quantification, in a simple format to enable testing at the Point-Of-Care and in low-resource settings
