Specifically, for her development of the neural network-based method for screening for non-acceptable polymorphisms (SNAP). Among its many uses is SNAP\u2019s ability to predict disease susceptibility by testing the protein-coding sections of the human genome. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The research has implications for disease diagnosis and treatment, environmental cleanup and even the origins of life.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Read full <a href=\"https:\/\/news.emory.edu\/stories\/2025\/04\/er_bromberg_iscb_fellow_04-04-2025\/story.html\">article<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dr. Yana Bromberg, a professor with joint appointments in the Emory College Departments of Biology and Computer Science, has been elected Fellow of the International Society for Computational Biology.&nbsp; Dr.&hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/scholarblogs.emory.edu\/emorybiologynews\/2025\/10\/09\/dr-yana-bromberg-elected-fellow-of-the-international-society-for-computational-biology\/\" class=\"apace-readmore-link\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Dr. Yana Bromberg elected Fellow of the International Society for Computational Biology<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8338,"featured_media":357,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7,1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-356","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-awards-recognition","category-faculty-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/scholarblogs.emory.edu\/emorybiologynews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/356","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/scholarblogs.emory.edu\/emorybiologynews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/scholarblogs.emory.edu\/emorybiologynews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scholarblogs.emory.edu\/emorybiologynews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8338"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scholarblogs.emory.edu\/emorybiologynews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=356"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/scholarblogs.emory.edu\/emorybiologynews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/356\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":362,"href":"https:\/\/scholarblogs.emory.edu\/emorybiologynews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/356\/revisions\/362"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scholarblogs.emory.edu\/emorybiologynews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/357"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/scholarblogs.emory.edu\/emorybiologynews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=356"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scholarblogs.emory.edu\/emorybiologynews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=356"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scholarblogs.emory.edu\/emorybiologynews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=356"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
