Gian Marco Franceschini is a post-doctoral computational biologist researching epigenetic regulation in cancer at different scales.During his PhD, he specialized in AR-negative metastatic prostate cancer subtypes and related liquid biopsy applications (University of Trento, Italy). His work emphasized understanding the epigenome's relation to cancer treatment resistance and lineage plasticity and developing methods to decipher vast datasets and unearth novel epigenetic biomarkers based on DNA methylation. Gian Marco will join the Ciriello group and work at the intersection of chromatin architecture and plasticity in cancer through quantitative approaches.
