Lung cancer, of which non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most common form, is the second most prevalent cancer and the leading cause of cancer-related deaths. NSCLCs primarily comprise adenocarcinomas (LUAD) and squamous cell carcinomas (LUSC). Advances in early detection and prevention have been limited by the lack of early-stage biomarkers and targets. A comprehensive molecular characterization of premalignant lesions and tumor-adjacent normal tissue can aid in better understanding NSCLC pathogenesis. However, these investigations are further challenged by limited tissue availability and low cellular fractions of detectable somatic mutations.
Therefore, there is a dearth of knowledge about the pathogenesis …

Transcriptomic profiling and gene expression signatures have been widely applied as effective approaches for enhancing the molecular classification, diagnosis, prognosis or prediction of therapeutic response towards personalized therapy for cancer patients. Thanks to modern genome-wide profiling technology, scientists are able to build engines leveraging massive genomic variations and integrating with clinical data to identify “at risk” individuals for the sake of prevention, diagnosis and therapeutic interventions. In my graduate work for my Ph.D. thesis, I have investigated genomic sequencing data mining to comprehensively characterise molecular classifications and aberrant genomic events associated with clinical prognosis and treatment response, through applying high-dimensional …
