Kristen Naegle uses data- and computational-driven approaches to predict, and experimental approaches to test, the regulation and function of tyrosine phosphorylation in complex networks.
Neeley has been on faculty of the School of Engineering & Applied Science since 1979 and might be best described as a English major who found her calling in engineering. She is inspired by the potential of technology to promote human flourishing and by an understanding of engineering as a potentially ideal combination of practicality and vision.
