Overview

Leslie H. Sobin is affiliated with the National Cancer Institute in the United States. Their research primarily focuses on biochemistry, genetics, and molecular biology, with particular attention to molecular biology techniques and applications, cancer genomics and diagnostics, RNA research and splicing, RNA modifications and cancer, genomics and chromatin dynamics, and genetic factors in colorectal cancer.

The scientist's work has been published across several venues, including:

  • Archives of Pathology & Laboratory Medicine
  • Science
  • UNC Libraries

Recent publications by Leslie H. Sobin include:

  • "Histologic and Quality Assessment of Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) Research Samples: A Large Postmortem Tissue Collection," 2024, Archives of Pathology & Laboratory Medicine
  • "The GTEx Consortium atlas of genetic regulatory effects across human tissues," 2020, Science
  • "Genetic effects on gene expression across human tissues," 2020, UNC Libraries

Some notable co-authors working frequently with Sobin are Mary E. Barcus, Helen M. Moore, Philip A. Branton, François Aguet, and Kristin Ardlie. Collaborative efforts with these researchers have contributed to studies in molecular biology and cancer research.

Their research contributions cover specialized topics such as:

  • RNA Research and Splicing
  • RNA modifications and cancer
  • Genomics and Chromatin Dynamics
  • Cancer Genomics and Diagnostics
  • Genetic factors in colorectal cancer
  • Molecular Biology Techniques and Applications

Sobin's involvement in the Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) Project has led to work focusing on histologic assessments and quality control of postmortem tissue collections, which supports broader genetic regulatory mapping efforts across human tissues.

Related Online Degrees & Career Pathways

Aspiring healthcare professionals have many flexible options for advancing their education through online programs. Nurses hoping to shift from an RN to a BSN can benefit from rn to bsn online with no clinicals options, which eliminate the barrier of on-site clinical rotations and allow working nurses to upskill on their own schedule.

For those seeking leadership roles, a 1 year dnp program online offers a fast-track to advanced practice with a strong academic foundation. Some may prefer online dnp programs without clinicals, ideal for experienced nurses who want to focus on research, policy, or administration rather than direct patient care.

Individuals aiming to enter nursing quickly can explore online lpn programs, which prepare students for entry-level nursing roles with minimal on-campus requirements. These online pathways widen access and make it easier to balance work, family, and study—helping you find a route that fits your career goals and lifestyle.
