Cancer is a multifaceted disease influenced by multiple factors. Moreover, the impact of genomic alterations varies considerably depending on the cellular context. In the Computational Cancer Genomics Lab, we strive to decipher the context-dependent cancer fitness landscape. We do this by identifying novel cancer predisposition genes (CPGs), measuring variations in cancer fitness across cancer states, and constructing dynamic protein-protein interaction networks. Our research is rooted in cancer genomics, systems biology, and network medicine. First, our findings aim to provide a comprehensive understanding of tumour progression via novel CPGs. Second, after examining 250,000 primary and metastatic samples, we discerned specific cancer types/cancer genes with distinct fitness levels based on their cancer states. Through extensive data analysis, our goal is to address core questions in cancer genetics and to explore the practical and clinical implications of our genomic findings.
