Research Interests

Lana Yarosh runs the ProDUCT (Prototyping, Design, and Usability of Communication Technologies) group. As part of the GroupLens research lab, her group is committed to the design and empirical study of social computing systems, frequently adding an embodiment perspective to these investigations (e.g., adding projection and haptics to communication systems). The group does work in a variety of contexts, with particularly notable contributions in the areas of…

Physics

Postdoctoral Researcher

Research Interests:

High energy physics at collider experiments. I currently work on the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) experiment, located at CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC). My general interests include searches for new physics beyond the Standard Model and the development of new detector components and technologies for use in future experiments. I'm also interested in novel data analysis techniques such as machine learning as applied to both of these areas.

Hailong Cui

Kehan Zhang

Biomedical Engineering

Assistant Professor, Department of Biomedical Engineering

Research Interests:

The Zhang Lab develops programmable gene and cell therapies by bringing together synthetic biology, machine learning, and human disease models. We engineer molecular regulatory systems, synthetic gene circuits, and mammalian cells that sense, compute, and respond to disease-relevant signals. By integrating AI-guided molecular and circuit design, high-throughput functional screening, and 3D engineered tissue models, we seek to uncover fundamental principles of gene regulation and cellular…
