Darren Cusanovich is an Associate Professor and genome scientist at the University of Arizona with 12 years of experience bridging functional genomics, computational biology, and cellular biology. He leads a lab that uses single-cell genomics to map how the human genome regulates cellular diversity and how genetic and environmental variation drive complex diseases, with a focused disease model on asthma. His work blends experimental and computational approaches and often requires developing novel technologies or methods to study cell-type interactions within whole tissues. Based in Tucson, he brings deep academic training from a PhD in Human Genetics at the University of Chicago and a track record spanning postdoctoral research to faculty roles. Less obvious: his background includes an early career in music business and administrative roles, reflecting a capacity to translate across disciplines and manage collaborative, cross-functional teams.
