    Current Research and Scholarly InterestsThe laboratory develops and uses state of the art genomic methods to identify genetic factors affecting disease susceptibility, and to translate these findings into new treatments. We have developed a more efficient method for performing mouse genetic analysis, which has been used to analyze the genetic basis for 16 different biomedical traits. We are developing novel methods, and have developed a novel experimental platform that replaces mouse liver with functioning human liver tissue.

    Patrick Lee Purdon

    Professor of Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine (Department Research) and, by courtesy, of Bioengineering

    BioMy research integrates neuroimaging, biomedical signal processing, and the systems neuroscience of general anesthesia and sedation.

    We are a neuroengineering lab focused on brain dynamics, brain health, and the neural mechanisms of anesthesia. Our research aims to understand the brain dynamics of aging, Alzheimer’s disease, child development, sleep, anesthesia, and consciousness. We use this knowledge to develop novel technologies for brain monitoring and physiological control. We also teach anesthesiologists how to use EEG to provide personalized anesthesia care.
