  New publication

  We recently published our latest work, led by Tatiana, in NAR Cancer. Tatiana developed a computational approach, called PORCUPINE, to map heterogeneity in individual patient gene regulatory networks and applied it to study leiomyosarcoma, an aggressive cancer that can develop in smooth muscle tissue.
