Methodological Research

  • Retrieve pulmonary function and imaging for existing lung cases and prospectively identify new cases for COPD phenotyping.
  • Conduct a pilot study of radiomics for lung cancer that will focus on building a bioinformatics pipeline to facilitate radiomic analysis in relation to outcomes and genetic data.
  • Create a genome-wide/targeted methylation database for developing prognostic/predictive biomarkers of lunch cancer
  • Apply Artificial Intelligence to images for clinical prediction
  • Apply Natural Language Processing to electronic medical records/data retrieval
  • Develop and apply novel methods of survival analysis
