Senior🎓
Top SchoolBehrang Mahjani is an Assistant Professor and quantitative researcher with a decade of experience applying statistical and computational methods to biological psychiatry and genomic research. With a PhD in Statistical & Scientific Computing from Uppsala and dual M.Sc. training in engineering mathematics and computational biology, he bridges rigorous methodology and domain-driven questions across psychiatry, AI for health, and epidemiology. Based at Mount Sinai and affiliated with Karolinska Institutet, he leads interdisciplinary projects spanning genetics, autism research, and AI-driven population analyses. Colleagues rely on him to turn large-scale, noisy biomedical data into reproducible inferences and scalable analytic pipelines—skills honed through postdoctoral training and research specialist roles. Notably, his background in complex adaptive systems gives him a systems-level perspective that informs novel approaches to psychiatric genomics.
