Welcome to the Computational Omics | Huang Lab

Hi! Welcome to Computational Omics Lab at Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, NYC. This is the README to get started in the lab. Please make sure you read through this document thoroughly.

Mission: We develop computational multi-omics approaches to discover molecular drivers of cancer/human diseases and make advances in precision wellness.

Core values: scientific curiosity, biomedical advancement, responsible integrity, effective teamwork, and persistent optimism.
