This funding will facilitate the development of secure digital healthcare and health research tools that integrate EMR, omics, and biomedical knowledge to create innovative applications.

Dr. Mazumder has been awarded a multi-institutional grant from the Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H) for his project titled "Federated Ecosystems for Analytics and Standardization Technologies (FEAST).

Congratulations! Dr. Sweeney🎉

Dr. Sweeney has received an NCI STTR Phase I award for her project titled "Engineered Glioblastoma-Specific T Cells Using Immunostimulatory Photothermal Nanoparticles." This grant will support her work in developing a novel T cell-based therapy for treating glioblastoma.

They also curated key glycomics publications and engaged in various professional development activities, making significant strides in their fields. We wish them success in their future endeavors! #GWSMHS #HIVEBioinformaticsLab #GWBiochemistry #GWMolecularMedicine

We're excited to share that our summer bioinformatics and glycobiology internship has been a resounding success! Our talented interns worked on groundbreaking projects, conducting in-depth analyses of glycans and proteins while contributing to valuable educational resources.

treatment. It also presents clinical evidence for developing therapeutic approaches to treat CDK4/6i-resistant breast cancer patients.

Congratulations to Drs. Wenge Zhu, Yi Zhang, and their collaborating colleagues, their manuscript has been accepted by Nature Communications. This innovative study uncovers a previously unrecognized mechanism underlying therapeutic resistance to CDK4/6 inhibitors in breast cancer

Congratulations to our colleagues on their remarkable accomplishments and prestigious recognition! Drs. Ajit Kumar, Sabyasachi Sen, Elizabeth Sweeney, Jack Vanderhoek, and Wenge Zhu were recently inducted into the GWU Chapter of the National Academy of Inventors 🎉

scSNViz,a new user-friendly and publicly accessible tool for exploring and visualizing single-cell expressed SNVs in scRNA-seq data, is now available on bioRxiv from Horvath lab! Check out the preprint to see how it enhances analysis of cellular nucleotide sequence heterogeneity

Congratulations Dr. Sabyasachi Sen for the technology, Diabetic Kidney Disease Therapy TCO Award. This award will enable validation of improvements to the product design that will make manufacturing, administration, and quality control more efficient and reliable.
