The Department of Epidemiology had a very strong representation this year with graduate students presenting their research at the American Society of Human Genetics (ASHG) virtual conference in October. ASHG is the world’s largest human genetics conference.
- Kakati, Tulika, Bhattacharyya, D.K., Kalita, J.K., and Norden-Krichmar, T.M. “Classification of Differentially Expressed Genes using a Convolutional Neural Network” poster presentation at the American Society of Human Genetics (ASHG) virtual conference, October 2020. (Note: Tulika Kakati also received an ASHG Developing Country Award for this abstract, of which only 25 awards were given)
