معرفی
Mikail Rubinov serves as Assistant Professor of Biomedical Engineering (primary appointment), Computer Science, Psychiatry, and Psychology at Vanderbilt University's School of Engineering. His interdisciplinary work bridges computational neuroscience, network science, and clinical applications.
His research focuses on integrative statistical models of large-scale neural data, exploring brain network organization across species and scales. Key interests include evolutionary principles of brain networks, transcriptomic basis of neural individuality, information transfer in neural systems, and neuropsychiatric connectivity phenotypes. The Rubinov Lab develops computational frameworks for analyzing complex neural systems and integrates neuroscientific knowledge with multi-omics data.
Recent publications reveal strong trends in network neuroscience methodology development (circular analysis frameworks, unbiased sampling techniques) and translational applications (epilepsy networks, autism spectrum connectomics, gut-brain axis interrogation). His work increasingly incorporates transcriptomic data with neuroimaging at biobank scale.

Rubinov actively mentors graduate and undergraduate students across Biomedical Engineering and Computer Science. His lab maintains collaborations with UCSF, HHMI Janelia Research Campus, Weizmann Institute, and international neuroscience consortia. Current projects include integrative models of large-scale neural data and transcriptomic basis of neural individuality.
The Rubinov Lab operates within Vanderbilt's Department of Biomedical Engineering with extensive cross-school collaborations. Technical resources include GitHub repositories for constraint network models (cnm-code), volumetric segmentation (voluseg), and brain connectivity toolboxes.
