Kieran Campbell Lab Toronto

The Campbell Lab works on a diverse set of problems at the intersection of machine learning and biomedical research. We are based in Toronto’s Discovery District at the Lunenfeld-Tanenbaum Research Institute of Sinai Health System and the Departments of Molecular Genetics and Statistical Sciences at the University of Toronto.

We work on many things including:

  • Machine learning models for spatial ‘omics data
  • Understanding the composition and dynamics of the tumour microenvironment and how it enables tumour progression
  • Machine learning algorithms to help automate biological and biomedical data analysis
  • Software development for the design and analysis of highly multiplexed imaging datasets
