Summary
Benedict Anchang is a Stadtman tenure-track Principal Investigator in Computational Systems Biology at NIH/NIEHS and an Adjunct Principal Investigator at the National Cancer Institute with 11 years of experience translating high-throughput data into insights on disease progression. He trained in statistical bioinformatics and systems biology with a PhD from the University of Regensburg and advanced computational biology work at Stanford, where he also served as an instructor and postdoctoral scholar. His research blends biostatistics, genomics and systems-level modeling to develop computational approaches that directly inform patient health and cancer biology. Based in Durham, NC, he leads interdisciplinary teams that bridge method development and biomedical application, moving analyses from raw genomic signals to interpretable disease mechanisms. Notably, his background spans European and U.S. research environments, giving him a broad perspective on collaborative, reproducible computational science.
