Núria López Bigas is a Spanish biologist and research professor with expertise in medical genetics, computational biology, and bioinformatics.
[1] She then moved to Cambridge, UK where she worked on computational genomics at the European Bioinformatics Institute in Christos A. Ouzounis's group.
Her lab has developed computational methodologies to detect these signals of positive selection in the pattern of somatic mutations observed in tumors.
This web platform supports cancer researchers by providing a systematic analysis of oncogene data across various sequencing projects to aid in clinical decision-making.
[5] The lab is also involved in advancing precision medicine by using targetable gene alterations to help determine therapeutic options for cancer patients.
