Recent projects

These projects highlight recent collaborations with teams across the Broad and demonstrate our approach to visualizing and communicating data in a variety of different contexts.

A series of plots are displayed in a dashboard layout, including histograms, density plots, tSNE plots, and bar plots.

Sunburst plot where each color represents different cancer cell lines. The center circle divides cell lines into rare and pediatric versus common cell lines. From the innermost circle, the categories then sub-divide into lineage folowed by cancer type.

A photograph shows a hand holding an iPhone. The top of the illuminated screen reads 'IBD Tracker' and then shows text that reads 'Please submit a sample'. Below this, a menu appears with two options: 'My Reports' and 'My Food Log'.

A portal of interactive viz to probe how cancer evades the immune system

A visualization type called a Swimmer Plot which shows multiple colored bars. Each bar represents a single patient as they undergo cancer therapy and the various treatments they receive.

Five pills stand in a row, each with a different color. A black arm in a hand-drawn sketch style is reaching from the top of the image down to the pill on the most left side. The hand is pulling a 'skin' off of the pill to reveal a new color underneath. Next to the hand, text on the image reads compounds that reveal hidden identities as cancer cell killers.
