个人简介
Joined the Allen Institute in 2006 and became Executive Vice President, Director for the Brain Science group in 2020. From 2016 to 2020, she led the Structured Science Division to develop and operate high-throughput pipelines to generate large-scale datasets and tools to accelerate neuroscience discovery. Since joining the Allen Institute, she has led several research programs, including the Transgenic Technology program, the Human Cortex Gene Survey project, the Allen Mouse Brain Connectivity Atlas project, the Cell Types and Connectivity program, the Human and Mammalian Brain Cell Atlas project, and the Developmental Mouse Brain Cell Atlas project. The scholar studies neuronal diversity and connectivity in mammalian brain-wide circuits in the context of development, function and disease. Through her leadership of multidisciplinary teams, she has built research programs using transcriptomic, connectomic and multimodal approaches to characterize and classify the wide variety of cell types in the brain, laying the foundation for unraveling the cell type basis of brain function. Her work has led to many large-scale, open-access datasets and tools that have become widely adopted community resources and standards, including transgenic mouse lines, Allen Mouse Brain Connectivity Atlas, the Common Coordinate Framework (CCF), and the brain-wide transcriptomic cell type taxonomy and atlas. The scholar received her Ph.D. in molecular and cell biology from Brandeis University, where she studied the molecular mechanisms of the circadian clock in fruit flies. As a postdoctoral fellow at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, she studied the molecular and synaptic mechanisms underlying hippocampus-dependent plasticity and learning. She has received many honors, including the 2016 AWIS Award for Scientific Advancement, the 2018 Gill Transformative Investigator Award, and the 2023 Pradel Research Award from the National Academy of Sciences. The scholar is an elected member of the National Academy of Sciences and the National Academy of Medicine.
