Allegra Petti

Her research is focused on understanding intratumoral heterogeneity, tumor evolution, and the tumor microenvironment at single cell resolution. She uses computational approaches to analyze, integrate, and interpret large-scale genomic data, with an emphasis on single-cell RNA-sequencing data. She completed a PhD in Genetics in the laboratory of George Church at Harvard Medical School, and a postdoctoral fellowship in Systems Biology with David Botstein at Princeton University. She was Research Faculty under the mentorship of Tim Ley at Washington University and the McDonnell Genome Institute.
