Projects

Together with the scientists at Agenus, a US-based biotech company specializing in innovative forms of cancer treatment, including the discovery and development of immuno-oncology therapies, ABI has formed a team of students and researchers to study cancer metastases and identify potential biomarkers and targets for cancer immunotherapies. This collaboration is also part of our long-term vision of supporting biotech developments in Armenia. The team discovers transcriptomics heterogeneity of Liver ...

The overarching objective of this project is to utilize nanopore sequencing technology and to develop machine learning–based pipelines for the integrative analysis of heterogeneous biological "big data," including multi-omic and phenotypic datasets. The goal is to investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying selected cancers and to identify novel omics-based markers for cancer classification, diagnostics, and prognostics.
