Eric Samorodnitsky, Ph.D.

Postdoctoral Fellow

Eric is currently a bioinformatics post-doctoral fellow at Boston University School of Medicine.  He earned his B.S. from Cornell University in Biological and Environmental Engineering and received his  Ph.D. from Penn State, where he used Python programming to analyze microarray and Next Generation sequencing data for genome-wide transcription factor binding. Currently, he uses Python programming for the  analysis of Macaca Mulatta (rhesus monkey) behavioral and feeding data.
