Current Research and Scholarly InterestsOur goal is to develop and clinically implement new technologies for high-precision and noninvasive intervention upon the nervous system. Every few millimeters of the brain is functionally distinct, and different parts of the brain may have counteracting responses to therapy. To better match our therapies to neuroscience, we develop techniques that allow intervention upon only the right part of the nervous system at the right time, using technologies like focused ultrasound and nanotechnology.

BioDr. Ake is a computational biologist specializing in single-cell transcriptomics, alternative polyadenylation, and isoform regulation. His research focuses on developing computational methods and bioinformatic pipelines to characterize post-transcriptional regulation and differential isoform usage at single-cell resolution. During his PhD under the mentorship of Dr. Mireya Plass at the University of Barcelona and the IDIBELL Research Institute in Barcelona, Spain, he developed approaches for isoform quantification and the analysis of differential isoform usage in single-cell datasets.
Currently, his research at Stanford University focuses on multi-omics data integration, with a particular emphasis on spatial transcriptomics and cancer genomics to study tumor biology, tissue heterogeneity, and disease-associated molecular programs from high-dimensional sequencing data.
