We are thrilled to celebrate Dr. Tarun Mamidi, who graduated from UAB on Saturday, December 14th.
Dr. Mamidi defended his dissertation, “Improving Molecular Diagnosis Success Rates and Prognosis Prediction for Patients With Rare Diseases,” in June 2024.
He will begin his new role as a Bioinformatics Scientist at Children’s Mercy while continuing as a consultant in our lab.
We wish you continued success in your career, Tarun!
We’re excited to share that our lab’s work was featured in the NIH Research Highlights post on the University of Alabama at Birmingham’s (UAB) Center for Precision Animal Modeling (C-PAM). This recognition underscores our contributions to advancing precision disease modeling, a field at the forefront of personalized medicine.
C-PAM is one of three U54 centers established under the NIH Precision Disease Modeling Initiative, focused on creating advanced animal models for precision therapies targeting complex disorders like ciliopathies and Roberts syndrome. Our tool, Rosalution, plays a key role in these efforts, helping link unique human genomic variants to disease with high-throughput, cost-effective pipelines.
This recognition highlights our lab’s commitment to developing innovative tools that enhance our understanding of disease mechanisms and empower clinicians and researchers.
