CS grad student Viswesh Periyasamy (now alum! MS ’19) presents GLBIO poster on degenerative eye disease

Viswesh Periyasamy presented a poster in May at the Great Lakes Bioinformatics Consortium 2019 Conference (GLBIO) on the topic of gene regulatory network inference. This is a method to recover the interactions and relationships between genes. His research goal, in his own words, “is to better understand how gene mutations responsible for degenerative eye disease can affect the underlying mechanisms in which genes interact with each other.”
