Artificial intelligence designed to help scientists study the brain with greater precision earned a Best Poster Honorable Mention Award at the 16th Association for Computing Machinery Conference on Bioinformatics, Computational Biology, and Health Informatics. The conference brings together work in artificial intelligence for Bio-medicine from across computer science, statistics, biology, and clinical research. The project… continue reading
Breakthrough research doesn’t stay in the lab – it shapes careers and creates impact. At Rutgers–Camden, doctoral work in Computational and Integrative Biology led to publication in Nature Chemical Biology and opened the door to opportunities in one of the fastest-growing fields today. That path belongs to Gabriele Skidmore, now advancing cell and gene therapy… continue reading
Genetic disorders like sickle cell anemia affect millions worldwide, and new approaches to treatment are urgently needed. In Major NIH Grant is Strengthening Rutgers–Camden Research, author Eileen Reinhard details how chemistry professor and Center for Computational and Integrative Biology (CCIB) member Jinglin Fu is leading work that could change the landscape of genetic medicine. Supported… continue reading
Each year, Campus Philly publishes its Guide to Philly, a resource designed to help students explore neighborhoods, connect with community, and discover the region through student voices. This year, graduate student Kazi Tanzina Begum offered Camden’s story from her perspective as both a graduate and international student. Originally from Bangladesh and now in her second… continue reading
Two honors in one day. On August 28, 2025, during Graduate School–Camden orientation, Matthew G. Niepielko, Ph.D., was named one of the recipients of the Distinguished Graduate Award. But the bigger news had come earlier that day, when he learned he had been awarded tenure at Kean University — a double milestone that reflected both… continue reading
