Summary

Seniorđ
Top SchoolVincent Cannataro is an associate professor of biology and computational biologist who uses mathematical modeling, simulations, and bioinformatics to dissect somatic evolution driving aging and cancer. With over a decade of experience spanning a Ph.D. blending biology and mathematics and postdoctoral work at Yale, he applies both "top-down" population-genetics analysis of whole-genome data and "bottom-up" mechanistic models to infer selection dynamics in tissues and tumors. He leads research developing tools to estimate the selection intensity of specific cancer mutations and has translated complex concepts for broad audiences, including a televised demonstration with Bill Nye. A dedicated educator recognized with a teaching award, he combines rigorous theory with practical data analysis and an uncommon comfort shifting between abstract math and empirical genomics.
