Valentin investigates hypermutated colorectal cancer using multimodal data to study the tumor microenvironment's reshaping over time. His work focuses on the interplay between DNA repair, immune surveillance and evasion, and other competing forces that shape tumor evolution.
Joseph investigates how microbial DNA/RNA can be accurately identified in tumor bulk sequencing data, focusing on reducing technical and biological biases. He is developing robust methods to improve the reliability of metagenomic analyses in cancer research.
The Gurjao Lab aims to be a vibrant home for curiosity and collaboration. Our members come from diverse backgrounds, bringing together expertise across disciplines to tackle fundamental and applied questions in cancer research. Lab members are trusted to take ownership of their science while being supported by peers and mentors.
We celebrate diversity as a source of strength and innovation in our work. We are committed to an inclusive, equitable, and welcoming environment for all members. We participate in EDI initiatives at IRIC and pursue research for equitable access to cancer care across demographics.
