Abstract

Biography

Jason George, M.D., Ph.D., earned his M.D. from Baylor College of Medicine and his Ph.D. in bioengineering from Rice University. Dr. George is an assistant professor in the Department of Biomedical Engineering at Texas A&M Health Institute of Biosciences and Technology. His research is focused on developing and applying mathematical and statistical models to understand cancer evolution and immune escape, the recognition capacity of an adaptive immune repertoire, the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition dynamics, and phenotypic adaptation in stochastic environments with applications to drug resistance and adaptive therapies.
