C. Contributions to Science
My work with Pediatric Oncology at Columbia University Medical Center helped establish the PIPSEQ (Precision in Pediatric Sequencing) program at the Medical Center. This established clinical whole exome and whole transcriptome sequencing for pediatric cancer patients at the medical center and then for the entire greater New York area. This demonstrated clinical utility of whole exome and whole transcriptome sequencing in advanced pediatric cancer, including the utility of germline variant detection, secondary findings in addition to targetable variants and fusions; identified novel fusions; and demonstrated the role of integrative analysis in advanced cancer.

My work with thoracic oncology helped establish the first clinically validated miRNA assay to distinguish pulmonary adenocarcinomas from squamous cell carcinomas, demonstrated the role of targetable MET mutations in pulmonary sarcomatiod carcinomas, and the role of molecular testing in distinguishing multiple primaries from intrapulmonary metastases, in the staging of lung cancer, and the cytomorphological features of ALK-rearranged pulmonary adenocarcinomas.
