About
Advancing Breast Cancer Precision Medicine

Core Pillars of the Heng Lab
- Multimodal Research: We integrate wet-lab, computational biology, and translational strategies to address clinically important problems that cannot be solved within a single field.
- A Global Network: We partner with world-class physicians and scientists across Harvard, USA, and international institutions.
- Equitable Medicine: Pioneering critical research in transgender cancer to ensure precision medicine serves all populations.
