Ian created a user-friendly app that integrates multiple bioinformatics databases to predict potential cancer genes.
“I like conducting research, and there’s a great need for early screening methods for ovarian cancer, which is why I did this project. I made friends with lots of great people at the presentation, and it was a great experience,” said Hou.
The John Cooper School is a PK-12 independent, college preparatory day school that has been serving The Woodlands and greater Houston area since 1988.
