Associate Professor
Penn State University
Hershey, Pennsylvania, United States
Elizabeth Proctor is an Associate Professor of Neurosurgery, Pharmacology, Biomedical Engineering, and Engineering Science & Mechanics at Penn State University, where she integrates experimental and computational systems biology methods to uncover interactions between seemingly discrete pathological processes in neurological disorders. The ultimate goal of her work is to design perturbations to these integrated multi-scale networks in order to maintain brain health and correct disease phenotypes. Prior to Penn State, Elizabeth was a postdoctoral fellow in the Department of Biological Engineering at MIT, where she used multiplexing and OMICS assays combined with multivariate modeling and machine learning to map cellular communication and signaling networks implicated in disease. Elizabeth completed her PhD in Computational Biophysics at UNC Chapel Hill, where she developed methodology for molecular modeling and protein engineering to control molecular structure, dynamics, and function in disease-relevant systems. Elizabeth holds Honors bachelor diplomas from Purdue University in Physics and in Russian Language and Literature.
