A research team at Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) has developed an innovative computational tool offering researchers an efficient method for detecting the different ways RNA is pieced together (spliced) when copied from DNA.
The Liao Laboratory aims to translate fundamental discoveries to improve fetal diagnosis and treatment of congenital craniofacial conditions, and utilize complementary approaches working with collaborators across CHOP Research Institute to achieve this aspirational aim.
Improving patient care, leading and coordinating pediatric thyroid cancer research at CHOP and with collaborators around the world, and providing a bridge to transition clinical and laboratory discoveries into clinical practice.
The work of scientists in the Center for Craniofacial Innovation will have a direct bearing on the discovery of drugs to mitigate malformation phenotypes and functional genomics of human candidate genes implicated in craniofacial disorders.
