• whole-genome sequencing of gastric cancer

  Gastric cancer is one of the most common cancers. Genome-wide analysis of genomic signatures might reveal novel mechanisms for gastric cancer tumorigenesis. Here, we analyzed structural variations and mutational signatures via whole-genome sequencing of 168 gastric cancer samples. Our data demonstrates diverse models of complex structural variations operative in GC, which lead to high-level amplification of oncogenes.

• Somatic Inactivation of Breast Cancer Predisposition Genes in Tumours Associated with Pathogenic Germline Variants

  Breast cancers (BC) from susceptibility gene carriers, including BRCA1/2, PALB2 and RAD51C, have been shown to have bi-allelic loss in the respective genes and be associated with triple-negative (TN) BC and distinctive somatic mutational signatures. Tumour sequencing thus presents an orthogonal approach to assess the role of candidate genes in BC development.

• Whole genome analysis of pediatric patients with medulloblastoma

  Cancer genomes often contain structural variations (SVs) in non-coding regions, while its impact on tumorigenesis is still unclear. Our goal is to discover genome folding changes resulted from SVs using InfoGenomeR and InfoHiC frameworks, which may reveal novel therapeutic targets. We applied our frameworks to five pediatric patients with medulloblastoma, revealing 3D genome changes of medulloblastoma driver genes.

• The molecular landscape of homologous recombination deficient, end-stage, high grade serous ovarian cancer

  High grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSC) is frequently characterized by homologous recombination (HR) DNA repair deficiency, and while most such tumors are sensitive to initial treatment, acquired resistance is common. We undertook a multi-omics approach to interrogating mechanisms of resistance, using multiple autopsy samples collected from 15 women with HR-deficient HGSC.

• RNA-sequencing of ex vivo exhausted human antigen-specific T cells

  Tumor-specific T cells are frequently exhausted by chronic antigenic stimulation. To explore new pathways for reinvigoration of anti-tumor immune functions, we developed a human ex vivo exhaustion model by repetitive antigenic stimulation of primary CD8 T cells. This results in T cells that resemble patient-derived T cells in tumors on a phenotypic and transcriptional level.
