Please join us for “Data Science Meets Diagnostics: Exploring the Computational Pathology Landscape,” a presentation by Phillip Galbo, director of computational pathology at Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center, on Tuesday, February 13, from 5:55 to 7:05 p.m. in Science and Mathematics Complex 151. This talk is part of the Data Science and Analytics Seminar Spring 2024 Series.

Dr. Galbo will provide an overview of the Computational Pathology Department at Roswell Park’s mission and role in revolutionizing pathology:

• Highlighting ongoing projects in algorithm development, image analysis, and diagnostic prediction. 
• Illustrating how computational tools are seamlessly integrated into diagnostic routines. 
• Showcasing collaborative efforts with academic and industry partners for groundbreaking research. 

Dr. Galbo holds a Ph.D. from the Albert Einstein College of Medicine, specializing in cancer bioinformatics. During his academic tenure, his research leveraged next-generation sequencing datasets to uncover and validate novel tumor-microenvironment interactions linked to cancer immune cell evasion, invasion, and plasticity. Before this, Dr. Galbo contributed to research at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, where he delved into the underlying epigenetic mechanisms associated with metastasis and immunotherapy resistance in prostate cancer. Currently serving as the director of computational pathology at Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center, Dr. Galbo is dedicated to advancing diagnostic capabilities and liquid biopsy development through algorithmic innovation. data justice. His interdisciplinary work spans environmental health, social science, and critical theory.
