I am an Associate Professor in the Department of Biomedical Engineering at Johns Hopkins University, with joint appointments in Applied Mathematics and Statistics, Computer Science, Electrical and Computer Engineering, Neuroscience, and Biostatistics. Our research focuses primarily on the intersection of natural and artificial intelligence. We develop and apply high-dimensional nonlinear machine learning methods to biomedical big data science challenges. We have published about 200 papers in prominent scientific and engineering venues, with >12,000 citations and an h-index >45. Our group is one of the few in the world that regularly publishes in both top scientific (e.g., Nature, Science, Cell, PNAS, eLife) and top artificial intelligence (e.g., JMLR, Neurips, ICML) venues. We have received funding from the Transformative Research Award from NIH, the NSF CAREER award, Microsoft Research, and many other government, for-profit and nonprofit organizations. I have advised over 60 trainees, and taught about 200 students in my eight years as faculty. In addition to my academic work, I co-founded Global Domain Partners, a quantitative hedge fund that was acquired by Mosaic Investment Partners in 2012, and software startup Gigantum, which was acquired by nVidia in early 2022. I live in the Chesapeake Bay Watershed with my beloved eternal wife and our three children.

  • 2017 Consultant for Nature Publishing Group The journal Nature

    The journal Nature, flagship journal of Nature Publishing Group, decided to create a ``Code and Software Submission Checklist''. They consulted me on their first draft, and I helped re-write it.

  • 2011 – Open Connectome Project

    The co-founder of the ``Open Connectome Project'' (OCP), for several years, I was the only neuroscientist that could easily store, manage, and analyze very big datasets, spanning first tens of terabytes, and then hundreds. For that reason, I was an essential co-author on a number of big data papers. Specifically, though I sometimes contributed relatively little to the scientific ideas, I often was required to complete, visualize, and/or share the data. Perhaps more importantly, both funding agencies and journals began mandating that these large datasets be publicly shared, and OCP was literally the only option. This is despite often not having funding, nor being a co-author, on the manuscripts

  • 2010 – AWS Open Neuro Data Registry

    Our lab co-founded the https://registry.opendata.aws/open-neurodata/ Registry of Open Data on Amazon Web Serivces (AWS). The implication of this is that now, pending a few minor considerations, any neuroscientist that collects large image data can deposit it online for free. This means that neither they nor we must request funding to store the data. Our lab maintains this repository, but only by virtue of ensuring instructions for uploading, visualizing, and downloading are up to date, and acting as a gatekeeper to ensure only appropriate data are deposited there
