Daniel is a Graduate Student in the Neale lab. He is developing a method based on the Maximum Entropy Principle to construct multilayer SNP-phenotype networks given GWAS data. He is generally excited about how simple yet powerful variational principles, such as Maximum Entropy, can be developed, extended and applied to problems in biology and medicine. […]
Siwei is a Postdoctoral Research Fellow in Dr. Benjamin Neale’s lab at ATGU and the Broad Institute of Harvard and MIT. Prior to joining the ATGU, Siwei earned her Ph.D. in Computational Biology from Cornell University, where her dissertation focused on identifying and interpreting disease mutations in the human protein interactome. Siwei is widely interested […]
Mary is an associate computational biologist at the Broad Institute. She is originally from Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. She completed her undergraduate study at Clark University in 2019 and graduated from Boston University in 2020 with an MS in bioinformatics. She plans to work on projects that allow her to apply her classroom knowledges/experiences while acquiring new ones. […]
Wenhan is a Senior Computational Associate in the Neale Lab at the Broad Institute. She earned her MS Degree in Biostatistics at Yale University in 2020. She is interested in analyzing genetic data for their impacts on human traits, as well as building pipelines for quality control and data virtualization. […]
Dr. Talkowski is the Director of the Center for Genomic Medicine (CGM) of Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH), Associate Professor of Neurology at Harvard Medical School, with cross-appointments in Psychiatry and Pathology, and the MGH Desmond and Ann Heathwood Research Scholar. Dr. Talkowski is also an Institute Member of the Broad Institute of Harvard and MIT […]
Hannah is a PhD in the Department of Biology at MIT. Co-advised by Hilary Finucane and Chris Burge, her research seeks to uncover the molecular mechanisms of psychiatric disorders by investigating non-coding variants that alter pre-mRNA processing and gene expression. […]
As part of a statistical genetics and experimental genomics research group, my work focuses on developing and applying novel methodologies to gain biological insights into genetic association signals. Specifically, I am involved in several projects to improve genetic fine-mapping for biobank-scale GWAS studies. Ultimately, we plan to test these results using massively parallel reporter assays […]
Nathan is formerly an Associate Computational Biologist working in Hilary Finucane’s lab. He is now a Graduate Student attending Harvard University. He is interested in developing methods for extracting functional information about genes, such as coexpression and coregulation, from gene sequencing data. He is also interested in applying the insights that can be learned from […]
Heidi Rehm is the Chief Genomics Officer in the Department of Medicine and at the Center for Genomic Medicine at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) working to integrate genomics into medical practice with standardized approaches. She is a board-certified laboratory geneticist, Medical Director of the Broad Institute Clinical Research Sequencing Platform, and Professor of Pathology at […]
Celia is a Research Scientist I with the Robinson lab, where she is working on common and rare variant additivity in Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). The inheritance of common variants associated with ASD from unaffected parents to children affected with ASD is highly complex and can contribute to the heterogeneity of the disorder. By understanding […]
