First Arcus Omics Data Launch: Q&A With Ingo Helbig, MD

Ingo Helbig, MD, discusses the Arcus Omics Data launch at CHOP in a Q&A.

Yang Ding, MD

Dr. Ding is an attending physician with the Cancer Center at CHOP. As for her research, she works to discover oncogenic co-dependencies using genomics data with the goal to develop novel precision medicine techniques for children with cancer. She focuses on high-risk leukemias and computational biology.
