معرفی
Diego Calderon is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Bioengineering and Therapeutic Sciences at the University of California San Francisco (UCSF). His research focuses on understanding how DNA sequences translate into biological function and disease using computational and experimental approaches, particularly through massively parallel reporter assays, single-cell technologies, and CRISPR-based screening.
