Welcome to Arkansas State University!

Dr. Sudeepa Bhattacharyya

Associate Professor of Bioinformatics


Research Interests

Dr. Bhattacharyya’s interest and experience span a broad spectrum of research domains, ranging from multi-omics and multi-modal data integration for understanding disease pathobiology, particularly in brain-related disorders such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, depression, and anxiety disorders, to the development of machine learning and deep learning models for healthcare applications. These applications include disease risk predictions, mapping social and behavioral determinants of health, missing value imputation for electronic health records, and addressing algorithmic bias in healthcare. Additionally, her data analyses are focused on developing spatio-temporal machine learning models to identify high-risk clusters of diseases such as colorectal cancer in Arkansas and the US, as well as studying the impact of social, environmental, and lifestyle factors on these disease clusters.
Key words: Multi-omics, Systems Biology, Neurodegenerative diseases, Public Health Informatics, Machine learning, Artificial Intelligence.
