Dr. Hamed Najafabadi obtained his PhD from McGill University in 2012, followed by a postdoctoral fellowship in the University of Toronto. He joined McGill University as a faculty member in 2016, where he is now an Associate Professor of Human Genetics. He holds a Canada Research Chair in Systems Biology of Gene Regulation and is a Sloan Fellowship laureate. Dr. Najafabadi鈥檚 research encompasses the study of transcription factors, RNA-binding proteins, and non-coding RNAs in the context of human diseases. His lab develops data-driven computational methods based on machine learning and statistical inference to characterize the role of these gene regulatory factors in determining cell identity and function. His group combines these methods with patient omics data to uncover the basis for development and progression of cancer, and to develop new omics-based diagnostic and prognostic tools.
