Joshua Riback

Postdoctoral Fellow

jriback@princeton.edu

Title: “Composition dependent phase separation underlies directional flux through the nucleolus”

Josh received a Bachelor’s in Biophysics at Johns Hopkins University. He obtained a PhD in the Biophysical Sciences at the University of Chicago, co-mentored by Drs. Tobin Sosnick and D. Allan Drummond, on the connection between the extent of collapse (or lack thereof) of intrinsically disordered regions/proteins and biochemical and cellular phenomena including phase separation, protein (mis-)folding/aggregation, and cellular fitness. He joined Cliff as a postdoc with the goal to apply biophysical chemistry, widely utilized in the protein folding community, in the rapidly emerging field focused around liquid-liquid phase separated organelles. Toward this end, he has begun elucidating the thermodynamic principles underlying endogenous phase separation and bridging these principles with condensate function.

Jian Ma

Associate Professor

jianma@cs.cmu.edu

Title: “Multimodal, interactive data visualization and exploration for the 4D Nucleome”

Jian Ma is an Associate Professor in the School of Computer Science at Carnegie Mellon University. He is a faculty member in the Computational Biology Department with additional appointment in the Machine Learning Department at CMU. The work in his lab is primarily focused on algorithm development to study genome structure and function with recent interests in nuclear genome organization, gene regulation, comparative genomics, and single cell biology. https://www.cs.cmu.edu/~jianma/
