Evren Azeloglu

Evren Azeloglu is an Assistant Professor at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, with primary appointments in the Division of Nephrology (Department of Medicine) and the Department of Pharmacological Sciences. His research integrates biomechanics, systems pharmacology, and machine learning to address challenges in kidney disease and transplantation.

• B.E. and M.S. in Mechanical/Biomedical Engineering (SUNY Stony Brook)
• Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering (Columbia University)
• Postdoctoral Fellowship (Department of Pharmacology and Systems Therapeutics, Mount Sinai)

His research areas include cell/tissue biomechanics, mechanobiological signaling, and systems biomedicine. Recent work focuses on deep learning for kidney biopsy analysis and microfabricated platforms for metastasis quantification. Articles demonstrate interdisciplinary applications of neural networks and high-throughput technologies in renal and oncological contexts.

• National Institutes of Health (NIH) funding for systems biomedicine projects
• Collaborations with Mount Sinai Institute for Systems Biomedicine and computational biology teams

Scientific accolades include Columbia University's Yuen-huo Hung & Chao-chin Huang Award and HHMI fellowship. His work appears in journals like Nature Medicine, Science Advances, and Kidney International, with emerging trends in AI-driven pathology and automated biomechanical analysis.
