This person is a member of Sanger Institute Alumni.
My PhD project focuses on the analysis and interpretation of structural variation in ~2500 cancer genomes sequenced by the International Cancer Genome Consortium. My research interests include statistical method development for cancer genomics data, and the causes and consequences of somatic (acquired) mutation.

Today, more than 1,300 researchers from around the world published the findings of the ICGC and TCGA #PanCancer Project, adding a new and important layer to our fundamental understanding of cancer. #PCAWG @OICR_news https://www.nature.com/collections/afdejfafdb
News & Views: An international effort to analyse and sequence nearly 2,700 whole genomes of cancer samples across a range of types of tumour yields insights into the genetic complexity of cancer. This analysis is detailed in six papers published in Nature. https://go.nature.com/2UteDzC
Finally able to share my last publication from PhD era! 🙌💃 -- patterns of structural variation in 2500+ cancer genomes https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-019-1913-9
