About
Meet Team Gerke
Our group’s research focus lies in integrative molecular cancer epidemiology, and is driven by concurrent interests in biostatistical methods development, computational biology, and modern data science practice. In addition to collaborative efforts in the domain of classical cancer epidemiology, our group is involved in several efforts to streamline processing, analysis, and epidemiologic translation of large-scale genomic databases such as The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and the Gene Expression Omnibus. An emerging research interest in clinical epidemiology applies contemporary methods in causal inference to existing clinical trial data in order to discover optimal treatment sequences.
A cross-cutting theme across the lab is the use of R software for data science. We actively develop and maintain several R packages and user interfaces (e.g., Shiny applications) that aim to alleviate computational bottlenecks associated with conducting molecular epidemiology research.
