DESCRIPTION:Prof. Dr. Dana Peer\, Chair\, Computational and Systems Biolog
 y Program\, Sloane Kettering Institute\, USA. Scientific Director\, Alan a
 nd Sandra Gerry Metastasis and Tumor Ecosystems Center\; Investigator\, Ho
 ward Hughes Medical Institute\; Alan and Sandra Gerry Endowed Chair\nA Lol
 a and John Grace Distinguished Lecture in Cancer Research\n\nDana Pe’er 
 is an HHMI Investigator\, Chair of the Computational and Systems Biology P
 rogram and Director of the Gerry Metastasis and Tumor Ecosystems Center at
  the Sloan Kettering Institute. The Pe’er lab has pioneered foundational
  machine learning approaches to derive cell states\, trajectories and inte
 ractions from single-cell genomics and imaging data. They apply their tool
 s to address questions in development\, immunity and cancer\, with a focus
  on plasticity\, tumor heterogeneity\, and tumor-immune interactions. Dr. 
 Pe'er earned her PhD at the Hebrew University. She received the Burroughs 
 Wellcome Fund Career Award\, NSF CAREER award\, NIH Director's New Innovat
 or and Pioneer awards\, Packard Fellowship in Science and Engineering\, Er
 nst W. Bertner Memorial Award\, ISCB Overton Prize Award and is a Fellow o
 f the AACR Academy. She serves on the editorial board of Cell\, leads an N
 CI Human Tumor Atlas Network center\, and heads computational analysis for
  the Human Cell Atlas.\n\n\n
