Srivatsan Lab receives One Ignition Award / Funding

Stuart and Molly Sloan Precision Oncology Institute Ignition and Technology Dissemination Awardees

<p id=>One Ignition Award went to <a href=https://www.fredhutch.org/en/faculty-lab-directory/srivatsan-sanjay.html id=>Dr. Sanjay Srivatsan</a>, an assistant professor in the Basic Sciences Division. Sanjay’s funded project will focus on developing a new platform investigating the single cell whole genome and transcriptome of pediatric patients with acute leukemia. With this detailed data set, Dr. Srivatsan intends on utilizing a novel statistical framework called genomic velocity, which looks at mutations shared between cells to estimate the rate of change of each given clone in a sample. Collectively, this will create a longitudinal clinical profile for leukemia patients that is more comprehensive and will inform the clinical decision-making process.</p>
