Biography

Dr. Jennifer E. Beane-Ebel is an Associate Professor at Boston University in the Chobanian & Avedisian School of Medicine, specializing in Computational Biomedicine. Her research interests primarily focus on the effects of smoking on airway epithelial gene expression, contributing significantly to the understanding of smoking-related lung disease. She has pioneered studies that reveal changes in the airway transcriptome in response to cigarette smoke exposure, emphasizing the mechanisms that lead to persistent and reversible effects of tobacco smoke. Dr. Beane-Ebel has also developed diagnostics for early detection of lung cancer based on gene expression profiling in bronchial epithelial cells. Her research demonstrates the added predictive value of gene expression biomarkers in diagnosing lung cancer. She has been involved in characterizing lung squamous premalignant lesions and understanding the molecular events leading to lung carcinogenesis. Her studies utilize advanced techniques such as single-cell RNA sequencing and deep learning methodologies to analyze pathology data. She has been awarded several grants for her ongoing research, including projects funded by the NIH and collaborating with the Boston VA.
