Multipartite network-based models for precision medicine

Description of the granted funding

From the drug discovery perspective, combination therapy is recommended in cancer due to efficiency and safety compared to the common cytotoxic and single-targeted monotherapies. However, identifying effective drug combinations is time and cost consuming. Here, I present a novel strategy of predicting potential drug combination and patient subclasses by constructing multipartite networks using drug response data. This project involves network pharmacology modeling, flow cytometry-based drug response, and thermal proteomics to provide the mechanism of action of drugs and drug combinations for a systems-level understanding of cancer.
