James Morrow, MD/PhD

James is a Pediatric Oncology Fellow at Dana-Farber/Boston Children’s Hospital where he currently treats pediatric patients with cancer diagnoses. He completed his MD/PhD at Case Western Reserve University. His graduate work identified enhancer dysregulation as a driver of osteosarcoma metastasis. He joined the Bernstein lab in September 2022 as a research fellow. His work will apply single cell … Continued

Anne van der Leun

Anne joined the lab as a research fellow in April 2022, after finishing her PhD in the lab of Ton Schumacher at the Netherlands Cancer Institute. During her PhD she dissected the transcriptional states of T cells in tumors using single cell technologies. In the Bernstein lab, she will assess the effects of global changes … Continued

Salva Casani Galdon, PhD

Salva is a computational biologist interested in how chromatin changes drive aberrant gene expression regulation in cancer cells. He is currently working in defining transcriptional regulatory circuits in liposarcoma.

Sonia Cohen, MD, PhD

Sonia is a surgeon-scientist interested in understanding gene regulation in cancer.

Justin Becker, MD, PhD

Justin Becker is a medical oncology fellow at Mass General and Dana-Farber. He completed his MD and PhD at the University of Pennsylvania, where his graduate work with Kenneth Zaret focused on the organization of human heterochromatin and its role in maintaining cell identity. Justin is currently a physician at Mass General, where he completed … Continued

Alba Meira, PhD

Alba joined the lab in 2021 as a Sir Henry Wellcome Fellow. Originally from Spain, she undertook her PhD at the University of Oxford before moving to Boston. She is interested in deciphering in the epigenetic mechanisms that lead to tumor development and evolution using single cell technologies.

Zeyu Chen, PhD

Interests: Epigenetic circuits in immune cells; High dimensional profiling in tumor microenvironments Zeyu Chen did his undergraduate at Peking University in Beijing, China, studying stem cell genetic engineering in Dr. Hongkui Deng’s lab. He then worked as a research assistant in Dr. Richard Flavell’s lab at Yale for one year, and did his Ph.D. at University … Continued

Chadi El Farran, PhD

Chadi El Farran is a Lebanese national who joined the lab as a Research Fellow. Chadi is interested in deciphering the cell-cell communication patterns that define the fate and function of these cells. He is also keen on studying the epigenetic and transcriptomic changes which are associated with diseases.
