His research focuses on deciphering the molecular and genetic basis of disease by integrative analysis of diverse types of large-scale genomic data. The Kundaje lab develops statistical and machine learning methods to decipher functional elements in the human genome, understand their role in gene regulation and cellular function across diverse cell types and interpret the molecular and phenotypic impact of natural and disease-associated genetic variation. Anshul received a PhD. in Computer Science in 2008 from Columbia University. As a postdoctoral fellow at Stanford University from 2012-2014 and a research scientist at MIT and the Broad Institute from 2012-2014, he led the integrative analysis efforts for two of the largest functional genomics consortia - The Encyclopedia of DNA Elements (ENCODE) and The Roadmap Epigenomics Project.
