The lab brings together computer scientists, statisticians, and biologists. We come from different training backgrounds and pull on each other’s expertise to ask sharper questions and build better tools.
The Srivastava Lab is a hybrid computational and experimental group. Every project bridges bench and algorithm. Computationally-trained students work directly with sequencing data they helped generate. Experimentally-trained students learn to build and run bioinformatics pipelines.
We develop in Rust, R, and Python, run experiments with PIP-seq and Oxford Nanopore, and meet weekly for joint lab meetings that cover both wet and dry work.
The lab is affiliated with the Genomics and Computational Biology (GCB) and Cell and Molecular Biology (CAMB) graduate groups at Penn / Wistar.
