Aziz Al'Khafaji
Dr. Aziz Al'Khafaji is the Director of Molecular R&D at the Broad Institute’s Genomics Platform, where he leads the Methods Development Lab. The mission of Aziz’s lab is to develop and apply scalable genomics methods to drive discovery in basic and translational research.
Dr. Al’Khafaji’s group overcomes long-standing resolution barriers by jointly developing innovative molecular and computational methods that capture and analyze complex biological features. This approach has been particularly impactful in the isoform discovery space, where his group has developed novel long-read RNA sequencing methods that resolve complete transcript structures, providing unprecedented insight into the role of alternative splicing in both health and disease.
