Dhananjay Bhaskar is a postdoctoral research associate at Yale University and a Yale – Boehringer Ingelheim Biomedical Data Science Fellow. He earned his Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering and Sc.M. in Data Science from Brown University in 2021 with a dissertation on topological data analysis of collective motion.

Dhananjay’s interests reside at the intersection of mathematical modeling, computational biology, and machine learning. Specifically, my recent work includes: (1) Developing generative models for small molecule and antibody therapeutics, (2) Quantitative analysis of spatiotemporal signaling through the lens of geometric deep learning and topological data analysis, (3) Learning dynamics and inferring regulatory networks (genes and neurons) using graph attention and neural ODE models.

Egor Dzyubenko studied biology, biophysics and bionanotechnology at Lomonosov’s Moscow State University and received his diploma in 2011. His diploma thesis focussed on the dynamics of mitochondrial membrane potential during hyperglycaemic stress in cultivated neurons. He performed his PhD thesis at the Department of Cell Morphology and Molecular Neurobiology of the Ruhr University Bochum under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Andreas Faissner from 2012 until 2016. His thesis entitled ‘Modifying synaptogenesis and functional state of neural networks in vitro: insights from antipsychotic treatments and extracellular matrix depletion’ was awarded with the grade “with distinction”. Subsequently, he moved to the University Hospital Essen and joined the NeuroScienceLab within the Chair of Vascular Neurology, Dementia and Ageing Research in 2017. Here his ResearchGate profile.
