    Suhas Srinivasan, Ph.D.

    Principal Bioinformatics Scientist, Dermatology

    BioI develop computational algorithms including AI/ML and statistical methods to discover insights at various resolutions of the biological hierarchy i.e., molecules, cells, tissues, organs, organism and population-scale.
    In my current role in the laboratories of Paul Khavari and Howard Chang I conduct bioinformatics research to study the molecular mechanisms of tissue development, cancers, autoimmunity and chronic diseases using multiomics, with a focus on the non-coding genome.

    I have ten years of academic research experience and received my Ph.D. in Data Science specializing in AI/ML development for diverse topics in biomedicine.
    My research interests include artificial intelligence to identify novel patterns in multiomics data, psychometrics and neuroimaging data; structural bioinformatics and computational epidemiology. Additionally, I have conducted research in anomaly detection, and community detection in biological networks.
    I am the co-inventor of a patented anomaly detection method for real-time streaming data.
    Prior to graduate training and academic research, I was a full-stack software engineer in industry for three years.
