About me
Yosuke Tanigawa, PhD, is a research scientist at MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Lab. To incorporate interindividual differences in disease prevention and treatment, he develops computational and statistical methods, focusing on predictive modeling with high-dimensional human genetics data, multi-omic dissection of disease heterogeneity, and therapeutic target discovery. His recent works focus on inclusive training strategies for genetic prediction algorithms and dissecting the molecular, cellular, and genetic basis of phenotypic heterogeneity in Alzheimer’s disease. He received many awards, including the Charles J. Epstein Trainee Awards for Excellence in Human Genetics Research and MIT Technology Review’s Innovators Under 35 Japan.
