Summary
Justin Silverman is an associate professor at Penn State who develops rigorous statistical and machine learning methods for complex biomedical sequence-count data, drawing on an MD-PhD in Bioinformatics and Biomathematics from Duke and a BS from Johns Hopkins. With 14 years of experience bridging academia, government and industry consulting through his firm Anarres Analytics, he translates challenging biological questions into reproducible, principled analyses of RNA-seq and 16S data. He runs a multidisciplinary program spanning informatics, statistics, and medicine and recently advanced to a joint appointment that reflects that breadth. Outside of research and consulting he runs Homewood Farm, applying empirical problem-solving to livestock and apiary operations—an unusual hands-on complement to his computational work.
