Genetics researcher integrating machine learning with high-throughput multi-omics data to dissect the molecular complexity of breast cancer, with a particular focus on immunogenomics and tumor-immune interactions in precision oncology. My work spans transcriptomic network analysis, cancer genomics, and computational modeling, and I'm currently expanding into single-cell and spatial approaches to characterize immune landscapes in tumors .
