Nov 06 Image Probing human learning and memory at the single-neuron level 11 a.m. – Noon, Nov. 6, 2026 A major focus of his work is to advance the technique of human single-neuron recordings and its use to deciphering a cellular-level understanding of human cognition and its impairment by disease. Dr. Rutishauser’s training includes a BS in computer science, a PhD in Computation & Neural Systems from Caltech and postdoctoral fellowships at Caltech and the Max Planck Institute for Brain Research.
Oct 16 Image Using multi-omics approach to study gene-environment interactions in cardiometabolic disease 11 a.m. – Noon, Oct. 16, 2026 Currently, Dr. Li leads multiple NIH-funded, multi-institutional studies within the Chronic Renal Insufficiency Cohort (CRIC) and Trans-Omics for Precision Medicine (TOPMed) programs. His recent research examines environmental determinants of APOL1-associated CKD progression, mitochondrial DNA abnormalities in kidney disease, and molecular mechanisms linking kidney dysfunction with cognitive decline.
