👋 Lead Scientist — 💌 shahr2@mskcc.org — 🇺🇸 New York
I am responsible for leading a team of Computational Biologists and Bioinformatics Software Engineers who develop, maintain, and operate bioinformatics pipelines and databases in the Center for Molecular Oncology. We also perform collaborative research with other labs and clinicians both within MSKCC and in the broader research community. On a daily basis, we analyze blood samples from patients with tissue-based cancers, using patients’ circulating tumor DNA extracted from blood, avoiding the need for tumor biopsies. More specifically, I lead the team in designing, developing, and implementing software tools for processing and analyzing high throughput, next-generation sequencing data, specifically for liquid biopsy applications (MSK-ACCESS & Clonal Hematopoiesis Panel). Previously in my time as MSK, I helped develop the workflow to analyze MSK-IMACT data for both clinical and research implementation, which is still being used.
