Interdisciplinary Research Opportunities For examples of ongoing undergraduate research opportunities that bridge biology and mathematics or biology and physics, please feel free to contact: Dr. Eric Bradley (Applied Science, Biology): In vivo gene imaging Dr. Nikos Chrisochoides (Computer Science): Algorithm development for medical imaging Dr. Bill Cooke (Physics): Application of lasers to enhancing mass spec. Dr. Christopher Del Negro (Applied Science): Neural modeling; rhythm-generation in the mammalian brain Dr. Jun-Ping Shi (Mathematics): Mathematical biology and modeling Dr. Greg Smith (Applied Science): Cellular Biophysics; Computational Biology Dr. Gene Tracy (Physics): Dr. Bob Welsh (Physics): Construction of detectors algorithms for SPECT in vivo gene imaging In addition, opportunities are available for students to work on innovative projects in the field of bioinformatics with Incogen, a Williamsburg-based bioinformatics company involved in developing software for a variety of applications including mass spectrometry. Additional information is available on the new interdisciplinary Applied Science minor.
