Gerald Quon
Postdoctoral Associate, CSAIL, MIT
I'm a Postdoctoral Associate in the Computational Biology group at MIT, and am currently working on integrating data from population genetics, interaction networks, and other datasets to study diseases. My advisor is Professor Manolis Kellis.
Previously, I did my PhD in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Toronto, under the direction of Professor Quaid Morris. My PhD focused on constructing probabilistic models for separating gene expression profiles of heterogeneous tumor samples into the profiles of the constituent cancer and normal cells, as well as the application of these profiles to predicting cancer patient risk of death.
