Summary

Yu-Chiao (Chris) Chiu, PhD, is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Medicine at the University of Pittsburgh. Dr. Chiu’s research interests include bioinformatics, machine learning, cancer genomics, and pharmacogenomics. The goal of his laboratory is to systematically model genomics and pharmacogenomics to better understand cancer biology and improve cancer therapy. His laboratory is actively funded by the NIH/NCI to develop deep learning methods that extract multi-omic signatures to predict the responses of cancer cells to chemical and genetic perturbations. Dr. Chiu’s studies are well-recognized by the broad cancer and bioinformatics communities, including the latest publications in Science Advances (highlighted by @NCIgenomics as the #1 favorite paper of 2021), BMC Medical Genomics (>100 citations and selected as Springer Nature Research Highlights in Genetics of 2019), and Briefings in Bioinformatics. The membership in UPMC Hillman Cancer Center Program will further expand the impact of Dr. Chiu’s research by teaming up with clinical, translational, and basic cancer scientists - to bridge cutting-edge computational algorithms to unmet needs in precision oncology.
