Harvard Catalyst Profiles

The mission of the Gillani Lab in Computational Pediatric Cancer Research (https://gillanilab.dana-farber.org/) is to advance pediatric, adolescent, and young adult cancer care using cutting-edge computational biology approaches. We strive to contribute to a comprehensive understanding of the germline genetics and tumor genomics of early onset cancer, with a focus on pediatric solid tumors, to inform novel approaches to management and treatment. We value great science that matters to patients, caring about each other as people and colleagues, and fostering an environment of mutual respect and collaboration. We have opportunities across clinically translatable computational biology research projects spanning single cell analysis, cancer predisposition, tumor genomics, and machine learning/ artificial intelligence. We are always looking for motivated and dedicated scientists at all levels of training to join us in our mission!
