The Aparicio Lab is an international cancer biology and genomics lab dedicated to dissecting fundamental properties of cancer evolution and developing new therapies. The lab is led by Dr. Samuel Aparicio and has an on-site location at the BC Cancer Agency in Vancouver.

At the Aparicio Lab, we use high resolution genomics and genetics to study human cancers, and couple these measurements with innovation in computational methods to infer cancer biology at genome and single-cell scales. We translate this into new therapeutics for cancer. An overview of our work can be found in Research and our publications are listed in Papers.
