Benjamin James
Graduate Student
I am a graduate student at MIT CSAIL performing research in computational biology in Manolis Kellis's lab, where I study computational genomics using techniques such as single-cell and spatial omics to understand the gene regulatory landscape of human disease. I am completing my Ph.D in EECS in the near future! You can find my cv here
Previously, I completed my undergraduate studies at the University of Tulsa, where I wrote efficient methods for alignment-free k-mer based methods for sequence homology under Hani Girgis, and where I graduated with Bachelor of Science degrees in Computer Science and Mathematics.
I am an NSF Graduate Research Fellow and a Frederick (1953) and Barbara Cronin Fellow.
