The explosive growth of genomic data, driven by advances in sequencing and inference technologies, presents both an opportunity and a challenge for evolutionary biology and public health. Existing visualization and […]
Neurodevelopmental and neuropsychiatric disorders (NPDs), such as autism spectrum disorder and schizophrenia, are among the most heritable yet mechanistically complex conditions. While large-scale genomic studies have identified hundreds of high-confidence […]
Machine learning endows autonomous systems to uncover underlying structures and physical laws from measured data and to leverage these models for prediction and decision-making. As the costs of data acquisition, […]
Breathing in the Anthropocene: Reflections on Breath, Air, and Vitality This presentation examines breathing in the present moment when humans vastly transform Earth ecosystems that impact health and well-being. Atmospheric […]
Collaborative virtual reality environments have the potential to greatly impact scientific progress, especially those relating to existential human problems. Within these virtual environments, scientists could view and interact with spatial […]
Program verification has been applied in many contexts (including videogames), but the scale and complexity of the examples that have been analyzed fall short of the ability to analyze many […]
What the Mouth Remembers is a research-creation project that explores how spoken language, especially when fragmented, mistranslated, and passed down across migration, family histories, and colonial ruptures, becomes a site […]
