I am the Director of Genome Informatics and a Principal Investigator at the Ontario Institute for Cancer Research (OICR). My team develops new software, databases and other necessary components to store, organize and compute over the large and complex datasets being generated by OICR’s cancer research programs.

I am passionate about translational informatics - building intelligent systems to gain new insights and impact human health. I co-lead the Clinical and Phenotypic workstream and Data Use and Cohort representation groups for the Global Alliance for Genomics and Health (GA4GH), as well as cohort harmonization efforts for the International HundredK+ Cohorts Consortium (IHCC).
