Computational Biology and Bioinformatics
Computational Biology and Bioinformatics uses data, modeling, and computation to understand complex biological systems across scales - from cells to whole organisms and clinical environments. By integrating large datasets from -omics and imaging technologies, this work uncovers new mechanisms, builds predictive models, and informs decision-making in healthcare.

David DiGregorio PhD
Professor
Physiology and Biophysics
Our lab investigates how the diversity and dynamics of synapses shape neural circuit function and behavior. Using a multi-scale and multi-disciplinary approach-from nanoscale molecular organization to millimeter-scale circuit output-we study how neurons encode time and integrate multisensory information.

Brice McConnell MD, PhD
Assistant Research Professor
Neurology
Ongoing projects in my lab include: 1) development of digital biomarkers for "wearable" devices that detect abnormal brain aging and early neurodegenerative disease risk, 2) assessment of the neuroprotective properties of sleep in the context of aging and neurodegenerative disease, and 3) integrating age-related changes in brain communication to molecular phenotypes that precede the development of classic neurodegenerative pathology.
