Yara Beyh is a PhD candidate in Nutrition and Health Sciences at Emory University Rollins School of Public Health. Her research investigates the exposure to environmental and epidemiologic risk factors during childhood on the development of diabetes in low and middle-income countries.
Using artificial intelligence, single-cell RNA sequencing, and the cell-chat method, Yara’s research leverages the latest technology and investigative tools to understand how cells communicate with one another in the process of developing diabetes at a young age.
Yara also contributes to the ongoing work at the Emory Global Diabetes Research Center and Bhasin lab in diabetes, cancer, and transcriptomics.
