Faculty Profile
Dylan Cable, PhD
- Assistant Professor, Biostatistics
Dylan Cable is an assistant professor in biostatistics at the University of Michigan.
His research involves developing rigorous statistical modeling approaches for emerging
high-throughput genomics technologies, such as spatial transcriptomics and single-cell
RNA-sequencing. Dr. Cable completed his PhD in computer science at the Massachusetts
Institute of Technology and a bachelors degree in mathematics at Stanford University.
Dr. Cable is interested in the application of high-throughput genomics technologies
to better understand human health and disease, as well as integration with clinical
settings and drug discovery pipelines.
