OpenVax
Open source software for personalized cancer vaccines
The OpenVax group develops open source software for designing personalized cancer vaccines. Our work includes a bioinformatics pipeline for selecting a peptide vaccine from DNA and RNA sequencing of a patient's tumor, as well as a collection of Python libraries developed to support it (see our GitHub page). We have helped initiate and run several clinical trials of personalized cancer vaccines at the Mount Sinai Hospital, in collaboration with Dr. Nina Bhardwaj, Dr. Adilia Hormigo, Dr. Matthew Galsky, and Mount Sinai's Vaccine and Cell Therapy Lab.
