      Nope, I don’t work on cancer although lots of other researchers do. We focus on how cognition changes as we get older! so it may apply to Alzheimer’s Disease.

      It the moment, no. But if the gene network learning was applied to cancer data in humans/mice, then it could help towards this task.

      Hey guys!

      my work, not directly, but I do collaborate with a group doing cancer gene therapy….I co-supervise a PhD student doing that sort of work.
