ERC Proof of Concept Grants for Fabian Theis
Award Supports Project “DeepCell” on Modeling Cellular Dynamics
MCML PI Fabian Theis has been awarded a prestigious ERC Advanced Grant by the European Research Council.
The grant supports his project “DeepCell”, which aims to develop advanced deep learning methods for analyzing dynamic single-cell data. By combining state-of-the-art machine learning with cutting-edge biological research, the project seeks to better understand cellular behavior over time, a key step toward improving diagnostics and personalized medicine.
ERC Proof of Concept Grants are highly competitive funding instruments awarded exclusively to previous ERC grantees, enabling them to bridge the gap between frontier research and potential innovation or commercialization.
Congrats from us!
