Kimberly Glass

Assistant Professor
Harvard Medical School



Kimberly Glass is an expert in complex networks and genomic data analysis. She obtained her PhD in Physics in 2010 from the University of Maryland. From 2010-2014, Dr. Glass was a postdoctoral fellow at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health where she received training in computational biology. During her post-doc she developed several computational and data-integration methods for inferring and analyzing gene regulatory networks. In 2014 Kimberly joined the faculty of the Channing Division of Network Medicine (CDNM) at Brigham and Women’s Hospital where she is continuing her research in systems medicine and network methods. Her current research focuses on how to integrate and interpret multiple omics data in the regulatory network context and on how to understand the biological mechanisms represented in these networks. She is also investigating potential applications of networks in precision medicine, using network approaches to understand susceptibility to, severity, and treatment of complex diseases.
