Bio
Jake Lehle is a first-year postdoctoral scientist who has recently joined the lab to investigate the presence of viral infection in tumors isolated from cancer patients utilizing single-cell technologies. His project will rank the presence of viruses identified within tumor isolates in order to elucidate the disruption to gene expression within the tumor microenvironment that is associated with viral infection.
