Research

Dr. Bhasin's laboratory has developed strategies for analysis of transcriptome, epigenome and proteomics data to perform multi-scale modeling of interaction among different cells molecular level and to identify novel biomarkers. He and his team are currently focusing on developing novel single cell omics approaches to understand disease heterogeneity and impact of treatments at single cell resolution.
