Ilya Shmulevich received his Ph.D. degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering from Purdue University, West Lafayette, Indiana in 1997. In 1997-1998, he was a postdoctoral researcher at the Nijmegen Institute for Cognition and Information at the University of Nijmegen and National Research Institute for Mathematics and Computer Science at the University of Amsterdam in The Netherlands, where he studied computational models of music perception and recognition. In 1998-2000, he worked as a senior researcher at the Tampere International Center for Signal Processing at the Signal Processing Laboratory in Tampere University of Technology, Tampere, Finland. Presently, he is an Assistant Professor at the Cancer Genomics Laboratory at The University of Texas M. D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, TX. Wei Zhang received his Ph.D. degree from The University of Texas Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences. He joined the faculty of M. D. Anderson Cancer Center in 1994 where he is currently an Associate Professor and the Director of the Cancer Genomics Core Laboratory. Dr. Zhang's research programs include cancer genomics and informatics, tumor suppressor genes, and signal transduction studies. Dr. Zhang is an Associate Editor for American Association of Cancer Research journal Clinical Cancer Research, and serves on editorial board of journals Cancer Biology and Therapy, Histology and Histopathology, International Journal of Oncology, BMC Genomics, Technology in Cancer Research and Treatment, and Molecular Cancer.
