Dr. Denis Tsygankov is an Associate Professor in the Wallace H. Coulter Department of Biomedical Engineering at Georgia Institute of Technology and Emory University. He received his B.S. and M.S. in Applied Mathematics and Physics from the Moscow Institute of Technology and his Ph.D. in Physics from Georgia Tech (supervised by Dr. Kurt Wiesenfeld). Dr. Tsygankov joined Georgia Tech in 2015 after completing postdoctoral training at UNC-Chapel Hill (supervised by Dr. Timothy C. Elston) and UMD - College Park (supervised by Dr. Michael E. Fisher). His research program at the interface of Systems Biology and Cellular Biomechanics focuses on elucidating the governing physiological processes that bridge the macromolecular, cellular, and tissue levels. Dr. Tsygankov develops new computational methodologies that advance the capabilities of experimental data science and reveal how physiological processes become dysregulated by disease and aging. Dr. Tsygankov is a recipient of the NSF CAREER Award.
