Join our lab!
The lab is looking for highly motivated students, with strong computational skills, who are excited about developing data-driven approaches to solve important problems in biology and health sciences.
Required skills for lab members include basic UNIX/Linux competency and programming ability (preferably in python). Coursework or project experience in machine learning and/or deep learning is highly preferred.
Prospective students, please apply directly to the CCMB or CS graduate programs at Brown and mention me in your application (no e-mails please!).
If you are at Brown and interested in joining the lab or a researcher interested in collaborating with us, please e-mail ritambhara@brown.edu.
Interested students at Brown are highly recommended to attend my Deep Learning in Genomics course in the Fall (CSCI 2952-G) or Deep Learning course in the Spring (CSCI 1470).
