Faculty
Our center is the home for several groups that conduct high quality research on various topics related to medicine and biology. Below is a (growing) list of labs and their faculty members that contribute to the center's mission for advancing medicinal research.
 | Casey Greene, PhDCenter Director Casey is a Professor in the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Genetics and the founding Director of the Center for Health AI in the University of Colorado School of Medicine. Before starting the Integrative Genomics Lab in 2012, Casey earned his Ph.D. for his study of gene-gene interactions in the field of computational genetics from Dartmouth College in 2009 and moved to the Lewis-Sigler Institute for Integrative Genomics at Princeton University where he worked as a postdoctoral fellow from 2009-2012. The overarching theme of his work has been the development and evaluation of methods that acknowledge the emergent complexity of biological systems. | |
