Senior Researcher @ IBM Research. Science & Innovation. Special interest on Computational Genomics, BioTech, MachineLearning and Quantum Computing. 🧬⚽ 🇮🇹. Views are my own.
🎉 Our paper is out in @SciReports!

We use Harmonic Persistent Homology (#TDA) to reveal hidden patterns and predictive #biomarkers in complex #MultiOmics #cancer data.

Why it matters? Better subtyping & new biological pathways.👇
