Abstract
Data has shape. Shape has meaning. I will discuss how Topological Data Analysis (TDA) has been applied to various biological problems such as identifying patient populations that might respond better to certain treatments, understanding the underlying etiology of a disease such as cancer and studying drug response at the single cell level.
