Professor Dr. Julia Salzman

Biography

Julia Salzman is an Associate Professor specializing in Biomedical Data Science and Biochemistry at Stanford University. Her research focuses on RNA biology, with a particular emphasis on developing novel experimental designs that facilitate statistical analysis of RNA expression. The Salzman Lab is a computational data science laboratory dedicated to creating new methods for analyzing gene expression and RNA splicing mechanisms. The lab's work is notable for its secondary focus on uncovering splicing regulations at the single-cell level, particularly in the context of diseases, viral infections, and cancer. Salzman’s group is engaged in extensive projects such as Tabula Sapiens, which involves massive single-cell sequencing, and spatial genomics analyses that investigate host responses to SARS-CoV-2. Her commitment to advancing the field is reflected in her innovative approaches and the high impact of her research findings.
