Faculty from the engineering school who will be involved with the center are Cenk Sahinalp, assistant professor of electrical engineering and computer science (EECS), and Meral Ozsoyoglu, professor of electrical engineering and computer science.
Other medical school faculty involved with the center are Evan Eichler, assistant professor of genetics, John Witte, associate professor of epidemiology and biostatistics, and Hemant Tiwari, assistant professor of epidemiology and biostatistics.
"Case Western Reserve is uniquely positioned to make major contributions in this area given our balanced strengths in medical research, genetics and genomics, computation and bioinformatics, and engineering and MEMS technologies," said James Wagner, interim president of CWRU. "This center will be an important catalyst for the university's work in this field."
