Steven Altschuler, PhD
Professor
In my lab, I seek to understand design principles of biological systems and how biological networks rewire during disease progression. I bring to my biology research a blend of experimental science, engineering, and mathematics. Projects in my lab integrate advance technology, experiment, machine…Learn more about Steven Altschuler, PhD -
Dorie Apollonio, PhD, MPP
Professor
My work considers the activities of industries implicated in the spread of non-communicable diseases, including tobacco, pharmaceuticals, cannabis, alcohol, and food. Some recent work has identified tobacco cessation strategies for vulnerable populations, sought to understand the scope of tobacco…Learn more about Dorie Apollonio, PhD, MPP -
Michelle Arkin, PhD
Vice Dean of Research Technology and Entrepreneurship
My research focuses on the development of drug-like molecules that alter important biological processes. These molecules will help us understand human biology and may lead to the design of new drugs. I also chair the Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry. Details: Administration.Learn more about Michelle Arkin, PhD -
Fran Aweeka, PharmD

Professor
My research interests focus on the development of state of the art methodologies in mass spectrometry for use in advancing our global knowledge of human biology, specifically the dynamic, epigenetic modulation and regulation of the proteome.Learn more about Al Burlingame, PhD -
Diego Calderon, PhD
Assistant Professor
My lab studies how DNA is translated into life and how genetic mutations can lead to disease using cutting-edge computational and experimental techniques. Recently, I have been excited to apply deep learning and other machine learning approaches to interpret results from massively parallel reporter…Learn more about Diego Calderon, PhD
