Adam Yala

BIDS Faculty Affiliate
Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences, UC Berkeley

Adam Yala's interests lie in the intersection of Machine Learning and Cancer Care. Adam's research focuses on designing modeling approaches that can capture the full complexity of biomedical data, are robust to data-generation biases, and offer safe-guards for clinical deployment.

Tolani Britton

BIDS Faculty Affiliate
School of Education, UC Berkeley

Tolani Britton uses quasi-experimental methods to explore the impact of policies on students’ transition from secondary school to higher education, as well as access and retention in higher education. Recent work explores whether the disproportionate increase in incarceration of Black males for drug possessions and manufacture increased gaps in college enrollment rates by race and gender over two time periods- after the passage of the Anti-Drug Act from 1986 - 1993 and after the passage of the Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act from 1995 - 2000.

Ronald Cohen

BIDS Faculty Affiliate
Chemistry, Earth and Planetary Science, UC Berkeley
Destinguised Professor in the Departments of Chemistry, and of Earth and Planetary Science

Ronald Cohen's lab research is focused on understanding basic processes that impact air quality and climate. Broadly, the lab studies how nitrogen moves through and between the atmosphere and biosphere, what the urban atmosphere can tell us about urban metabolism, formation of atmospheric aerosols as well as clouds, and how to build new techniques and improve existing ones for studying these important atmospheric processes.

Falk Schuetzenmeister

Alumni Council
Former BIDS Data Science Fellow

Dr. Falk Schuetzenmeister is currently a Geospatial Software Engineer at the Nature Conservancy.

Jasmine Nirody

Alumni Council
Former BIDS Data Science Fellow

Jasmine Norida's lab studies the physics of how organisms interact with (heterogeneous, dynamic) natural environments, and how these interactions shape organismal form and behavior. The lab asks questions that sit at the intersection of behavior, biophysics, and evolution, and uses both theoretical and experimental tools to work with a wide range of organismal systems.

Former BIDS Data Science Fellow

Dmitriy’s work is concerned with geometric and topological data analysis, especially with the development of efficient algorithms and software in this field.

Alan Di Vittorio

Alumni Council
Former BIDS Data Science Fellow

Alan's aim is to understand the co-evolution of human and earth systems in order to inform decision making, planning, and policy related to climate mitigation and adaptation.

Fatma Deniz

Alumni Council
Former BIDS Data Science Fellow

Fatma Deniz is interested in how sensory information is encoded in the brain and uses machine learning approaches to fit computational models to large-scale brain data acquired using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). Fatma works at the intersection between computer science, linguistics, music, and neuroscience. Her current focus is on the cross-modal representation of language in the human brain.
