Overview
1. Programmatic implementation of population-based colorectal cancer screening and follow-up of abnormal screening results. We embrace big data and technology to design, develop, and deliver economic and effective services for patients and health systems.

Approaches employed: organoid models, isolation of epithelial cells and lymphocytes, single cell, spatial transcriptomic analysis, microbial profiling, and blood-based profiling.
