super excited to share the newest from my lab: a tool that can securely process RNA-seq reads to quantify gene expression. Huge congrats to the dream team Seungwan, Conor Walker, and Annie! We developed a new gene expression quantification algorithm 1/2 nature.com/articles/s4146…

Fantastic myeloid malignancy workshop Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai The Tisch Cancer Institute. Many great speakers and stimulating discussion,


Delighted to have our Perturb-multiome paper, led by Jorge Diego Martin-Rufino and #AlexisCaulier from our lab, published today in Science Magazine. Please check out this powerful approach to decipher gene regulatory networks enriched for genetic variation: science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

CHOIR is now online Nature Genetics! CHOIR is a new clustering method for single-cell data that evaluates whether clusters represent statistically distinct cell populations. CHOIR scales to millions of cells and works with single-/multi-omic data of any type! nature.com/articles/s4158…

Inspiring quote from Adam Grant's Rethinking Podcast today: Adam Grant: "Best life advice?" Daniel Gilbert: "My father... said to me you will think for your entire career that your research is what matters most, but then you will get old and realize it was the students."

What happens when sequencing costs go ⏬ ? Imagination and new opportunities go ⏫ Dan Landau Let's look at what you can do when you perform deep WGS on cfDNA for cancer detection. Our recent work with the Ultima Genomics platform 🧵👇 Lets goooo!! rdcu.be/ehkUb

The integration of duplex sequencing with cost-effective Ultima sequencing enhances the accuracy of whole-genome circulating cell-free DNA profiling. Dan Landau Alexandre Pellan Cheng nature.com/articles/s4159…

A new, error-corrected method for detecting tumor DNA from blood samples is much more sensitive and accurate than prior methods, according to findings from Dr. Dan Landau (Dan Landau) and Dr. Bishoy Faltas (Dr. Bishoy M. Faltas). Full story: bit.ly/3EjLGQ2


I forgot to mention! We're recruiting graduate students to develop the next generation of cancer detection tools. Our lab is ideally located in #Montreal and is affiliated with Centre de recherche du CHUM and École de technologie supérieure ^amazing place to go from innovation ▶️ clinic Apply: tinyurl.com/mwtaesee
