The overarching goal is to develop novel spatial algorithms to identify gene expression patterns, gain new data-driven insights on tissue changes and...
- This $134,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) supports the development and pilot testing of a scalable case-based learning tool called "CASELET" to enhance data science problem-solving competency among graduate students. The key products and services to be delivered include: Augmenting and refining the CASELET tool to expedite the authoring process using large language models and machine learning. Scaling up the assessment...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) provides $243,764 to the University of Massachusetts Boston to create a computational framework for understanding complex biological processes. The project will develop automated methods to construct causal models from large biological datasets, enabling researchers to uncover cause-and-effect relationships that drive cellular events. This work will accelerate discoveries across...
This federal Project Grant award of $532,276, awarded on July 14, 2025 by the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859), aims to expand the Open Case Study (OCS) Project and create Biomedical OCS (Bio-OCS). The Bio-OCS program will focus on building bioinformatics skills using cutting-edge methodologies and tools like AI and spatial transcriptomics, providing learners with a free archive of case studies to work through real-world data from start to finish. To support skill development, the program will include virtual workshops, a Slack workspace, office hours, and in-person "case-a-thons". The grant recipient, the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center, will also collaborate to adapt the current OCS instructor guide by hosting reciprocal instructor summits. The goal is to enhance data science skills and access to training for researchers and trainees, particularly at under-resourced institutions.
