Dr. Ruth Huttenhain's group deciphers how G protein-coupled receptors decode extracellular cues into dynamic and context-specific cellular signaling networks to elicit diverse physiologic responses. They exploit quantitative proteomics to capture the spatiotemporal organization of signaling networks combined with functional genomics to study their impact on physiology.

In a competitive, international search process the Bio-X Senior Fellow Program Committee, chaired by Dr. Alfred Spormann, identified Russell Monds as the first “Senior Bio-X fellow”.

Russ Biagio Altman is the Kenneth Fong Professor of Bioengineering, Genetics, Medicine, Biomedical Data Science and (by courtesy) Computer Science) and past chairman of the Bioengineering Department at Stanford University. His primary research interests are in the application of computing (AI, data science and informatics) to problems relevant to medicine. He is particularly interested in methods for understanding drug action at molecular, cellular, organism and population levels.

Dr. Ruijiang Li's lab is focused on the development and application of novel machine learning and deep learning approaches for medical imaging analysis and precision oncology. This can lead to discovery of imaging-based biomarkers for several clinical applications including cancer detection and diagnosis, treatment response and prognosis prediction, which have the potential to transform cancer care.
