Guorong Wu lab develops computational tools to understand brain function

April 8, 2019
Guorong Wu, PhD, and his lab are interested in developing cutting-edge computational tools to understand the brain, using state-of-the-art neuroimaging, genetics, and machine-learning technologies. With this in mind, they work to discover biomarkers of neurodegenerative diseases, characterize genetic influences on brain structure, and create personalized diagnostic engines.

Purvis Lab finds evidence that the human cell cycle is a series of uncoupled, memoryless phases

April 8, 2019
Time鈥恖apse imaging of cell鈥恈ycle phase transitions reveals that phase durations are uncoupled and can be modeled as an Erlang process. Phase coupling can be forced by perturbing a strong cell鈥恈ycle regulator acting on multiple phases.
