Course Information

Description

The Singer group focuses on elucidating gene networks that regulate T cell function in cancer and autoimmunity, as well as the mechanisms by which bi-directional interactions take place between the T cells and their environment.

We use statistics, machine learning and algorithmic design to analyze high-throughput data generated in our lab (e.g. single-cell RNA-Seq) and model T cell regulation and function in tissue. We follow up on our predictions with in vivo perturbations (e.g. with CRISPR-Cas9) to validate and improve our models.
