The adjuvant therapy of choice for superficial bladder cancer is the intravesical instillation of live Mycobacterium bovis Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG). In spite of the fact that this thera...
Cancer cells are characterized by major alterations in both cellular metabolism and epigenetic profiles. Current understanding of links between metabolism and chromatin in the context of can...
The knowledge of molecular alterations involved in colon carcinoma (CRC) and non-small-cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) has significantly increased in the past few years. Molecular subgroups of t...

The next generation sequencing technologies are profoundly influencing our way to study biology. We have previously developed cap-analysis gene expression (CAGE) to simultaneously mRNA/noncod...
Developments in DNA sequencing technology have provided a unique opportunity for diagnosis and discovery of genetic alterations for rare diseases. Partnering with 20 academic centers in the U...
Since the introduction of second-generation DNS sequencing technologies in 2007, the cost of genome sequencing has been consistently by 33% per quarter, with the $1000 genome arriving in 2012...
MicroRNAs are short non-coding cellular regulators of gene expression. Each microRNA controls the expression of a large set of genes, and microRNAs collectively, may regulate more than half o...
Synthesis and assembly of DNA powerfully enables reverse genetics-based approaches to scientific discovery. I'll present recent and unpublished work on genome refactoring and redesign, focusi...
