Manuel Garber

Manuel Garber, PhD, is a Professor at the University of Massachusetts Chan Medical School, affiliated with multiple departments including Genomics and Computational Biology, Dermatology, and Systems Biology. His research focuses on decoding the functional genome, particularly non-coding RNAs and immune transcriptional regulation, using advanced sequencing technologies.

Education:

• BS in Mathematics, Universidad Simón Bolívar (Venezuela)
• PhD in Mathematics, Brandeis University (USA)

His work integrates computational methods with experimental genomics to map regulatory elements, study lincRNAs, and dissect immune response pathways. Key contributions include developing tools like Scripture and SiPhy for genomic analysis.

Recent publications emphasize single-cell RNA sequencing, non-coding RNA evolution, and immune regulatory networks, spanning journals like Nature, Cell, and Science. Collaborations with experimental labs drive discoveries in gene regulation and disease mechanisms.
