Starting in November, Takis will be a full Professor of Computational and Systems Biology with joint appointment in the Department of Biomedical Informatics and the Department of Computer Science. Congratulations!…
AJ and Takis presented the laboratory’s most recent work at the Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory meeting on “Probabilistic Modeling in Genomics” (October 14-17, 2015).
Benos’ lab welcomes its new member, Dr. Dimitris Manatakis. Dimitris has received his PhD in Computer Science from University of Athens, Greece.
Benos’ lab welcomes its new member, Dr. Klea Panayidou. Klea has received her PhD in Statistics from Oxford University and before joining the lab, she worked as postdoctoral fellow at the ETH, Zurich, Switzerland.
Profs. Benos (Pitt) and Kaminski (Yale) were awarded by NIH 2.9M over four years to perform genomic analysis to study the tissue and cellular heterogeneity in IPF. Understanding the molecular networks that underlie disease tissue characteristics will lead to better understanding of the disease, its mechanism and will eventually help…
Congratulations to AJ and Sam for their engagement.
Prof. Benos, Department of Computational and Systems Biology, University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, in collaboration with Prof. Clark Glymour, Department of Philosophy, Carnegie Mellon University, has been awarded $1.3M from the National Institutes of Health to develop efficient graphical algorithms to model causal relationships in large, multi-modal datasets. Together with UPCI…
Congratulations to Grace for the acceptance of her paper to Clinical Epigenetics. This paper demonstrates the usefulness of her algorithm, T-ReCS, in identifying cancer predictive signatures.
Takis gave a talk on T-ReCS at the 20th PSB 2015 conference.
Takis becomes Vice Chair for Academic Affairs in the Department of Computational and Systems Biology.
