CGDS Researchers Present Work at CSHL Biological Data Science Meeting

Two researchers from the Center for Computational Genomics and Data Science (CGDS) recently showcased their work at the prestigious Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL) Biological Data Science Meeting, held November 13-16, 2024. This meeting, known as #CSHLData24, brings together experts from across the globe to discuss advances in computational biology and genomics.

Dr. Gurpreet Kaur, a Scientist III at CGDS, presented her project titled “Integrative Genomic Characterization of a Rare Pediatric Differentiated Thyroid Cancer.” This project is a collaborative effort to understand the genomic underpinnings of a rare thyroid cancer in pediatric patients.

Shaurita D. Hutchins, a PhD trainee at CGDS, presented a poster titled “Identification of Drug Targets in Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension Using Gene Expression Signature Reversal & Mechanism of Action.” Her attendance was supported by a scholarship from the JXTX Foundation, which “provides support for students to attend conferences in computational biology and data science.”

CGDS is proud to have its researchers contributing to important discussions at leading scientific gatherings. The work presented at #CSHLData24 reflects the lab’s commitment to advancing computational biology.
