Job title:
Professor of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering
Bio/CV:
Research Fields: Biostatistics/Statistics, Epigenomics, Gene Expression and Regulation, Genomics and Genetics, Machine Learning and Algorithms, Network and Systems Biology
DE Students: Kushal Nimkar, Salwan Butrus
Research interests:
Shekhar is broadly interested in a molecular description of cellular diversity in complex tissues, its developmental and evolutionary origins, and its biological consequences for tissue function and degeneration. A major focus of his is to develop computational approaches rooted in machine learning to make precise biological inferences that can not only guide experiments, but also reveal general mechanistic principles underlying cellular organization and molecular networks
