Joseph Romano is an Assistant Professor of Informatics at the University of Pennsylvania who leads the Romano Lab, applying AI and translational bioinformatics to predict and explain chemical effects on human health with a focus on environmental toxicology. With 12 years of research experience spanning a PhD from Columbia and postdoctoral work in systems pharmacology, he designs heterogeneous graph machine learning and semantic-data algorithms to translate complex biomedical data into actionable insights. He is embedded in interdisciplinary centers at Penn—bridging biostatistics, environmental toxicology, and biomedical informatics—and teaches biomedical informatics and programming. Joseph’s background in molecular genetics and study of Japanese adds cross-disciplinary and cross-cultural perspective to his computational approach, and he actively recruits students and collaborators to advance computational toxicology.
