Denis Schapiro

Denis Schapiro* is working on "Automatic identification of stratifying signatures in cancer using topographic biomarkers". His team has created an interactive computational tool box «histoCAT» (histology topography cytometry analysis toolbox) to combine Cytometry and Pathology in a user-friendly manner so that pathologists and ideally patients can benefit from the comprehensive analysis of spatial structures in tissue architecture. They propose to extent their computational framework as a platform for biomarker discovery based on spatial localization of cell types, tissue organization and cellular neighborhoods – topographic biomarkers.
