Ongoing Projects
1. Assessment of Ovarian Cancer Histotypes Across the African Diaspora
2. Inherited and Sporadic Gynecologic Cancers Across the African Diaspora
3. Human Cell Atlas: African Caribbean Single-Cell Network
We will be working alongside the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative and the African-Caribbean Cancer Consortium to build a single-cell atlas of healthy breast, fallopian tube, and prostate epithelial cells across populations in West and East Africa, the Caribbean, and the United States. We will use this data (and genotype data) to inform a benchmark in pre- and post-menopausal women across ages. The benchmarks aim to confidently measure and interpret ancestral genomic differences at the cellular level.
