Biography

Prof. Wagner joined the faculty in January 2024 as an Assistant Professor of Computer Science at the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences (EECS), Assistant Professor of Immunology and Molecular Medicine at the Department of Molecular and Cell Biology (MCB), and a member of the Center for Computational Biology (CCB). His group develops data-driven algorithms to analyze single-cell molecular atlases (e.g., single-cell transcriptomics) and applies them to study the metabolic dysregulation of immunity in immune system disorders. The group collaborates with experimental biologists studying diverse immune disorders, which include cancer, autoimmunity, neurological, and infectious diseases.
