Xuehao Ding
Ph.D. Student in Applied Physics, admitted Autumn 2018
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsI am an Applied Physics PhD candidate in Baccus lab co-advised by Surya Ganguli. My research focuses on building encoding models of the retina with various biophysical properties especially for natural scenes and answering scientific questions based on computational models. I believe that the core problem in the field of sensory systems is to understand the representation manifold and I am achieving this goal with methods of differential geometry, deep learning, statistical physics, etc.

José R. Dinneny
Professor of Biology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsThe biology of root systems is governed by both micro-scale and systemic signaling that allows the plant to integrate these complex variables into growth and branching decisions that ultimately determine the efficiency resources are captured. Research in my lab is aimed at understanding the response of roots to water-limiting conditions and is exploring this process at different organizational scales from the individual cell type to the level of the whole plant.
