Robert D. Patton's research focuses on analyzing cell-free DNA circulating in the blood to detect and characterize cancer non-invasively, particularly advanced prostate cancer. This work uses patterns of nucleosome positioning and DNA fragmentation to infer gene activity in tumors and to predict disease subtypes and pregnancy-related complications like preeclampsia, aiming to develop blood-based diagnostic tools that avoid the need for tissue biopsies.
Publication output was low and steady through 2017-2022, then spiked sharply in 2023 (largely supplementary materials tied to a single major study) before settling to a more moderate but still elevated pace in 2024-2026.
