Ronaldo da Silva Francisco Jr
Postdoc
Pathology
I am a postdoctoral fellow at the Pathology Department, primarily focused on applying computational methods to unravel the molecular mechanisms of diseases. My research passion lies in utilizing multi-omic approaches to identify potential treatment options for different types of cancers. When I'm not immersed in research, I enjoy exploring beaches or engaging in various sports activities.
Asiri Ediriwickrema
Instructor (Hematology)
I am a postdoctoral hematology fellow and my interests are in malignant hematology, computational cancer biology, and leukemia stem cell biology. My research involves evaluating the heterogeneity of myeloid cancers by conducting cell specific, multi-domain analyses. My hobbies include beach trips with my wife and son, and watching college sports.
