Assistant Professor at the NYU Center for Genomics and Systems Biology Rahul Satija joined the New York Genome Center in December 2014 as a Junior Investigator and Core Member, with a joint appointment as an Assistant Professor at the NYU Center for Genomics and Systems Biology. Rahul’s group focuses on developing computational and experimental methods to sequence and interpret the molecular contents of a single cell. His group applies single cell genomics to understand the causes and consequences of cell-to-cell variation, with a particular focus on immune regulation and early development.

Rahul holds a BS in Biology and Music from Duke University, and obtained his PhD in Statistics from Oxford University as a Rhodes Scholar. Prior to joining the New York Genome Center, he was a postdoctoral researcher at the Broad Institute of Harvard and MIT, where he developed new methods for single cell analysis.
