The Atlanta Single Cell Omics and Analytics Initiative (ASCOmAI) provides a unified platform for coordinating and linking with experts in the field of Single Cell Genomics across three Atlanta Universities – Emory University, Georgia Tech, and Morehouse School of Medicine. ASCOmAI seeks to create meaningful partnerships/collaborations, provide resources and train future single cell researchers.
Through research, training and academic resources, the main objectives of ASCOmAI are to expand the scope and volume of single cell omics research in Atlanta. As part of this, we will also provide single cell experimental design consultation and data analysis services to accelerate your research. Your request may be eligible for up to 20 hours of free service for the first year.
Marina is a PhD candidate in the Cancer Biology program at Emory University under the mentorship of Professor Manoj Bhasin. Her research leverages single-cell and spatial transcriptomic analyses to profile the cellular and genetic landscape of the disease microenvironment in vascular disease (vascular graft failure, sickle cell anemia) and cancers (pediatric leukemias, medulloblastoma, and multiple myeloma). Through these analyses, she aims to elucidate the key intercellular interactions and gene regulators that underlie disease pathogenesis.
