About

Dr. Jun Ding is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Medicine at McGill University, with associate appointments in the School of Computer Science and the Department of Biomedical Engineering. As a core member of the Meakins-Christie Laboratories and an affiliate of Mila (Quebec AI Institute), his research sits at the vanguard of Neuro-AI and Computational Biology. Dr. Ding’s work is centered on "virtualizing" the cell—developing deep generative models and probabilistic graphical frameworks to simulate Cell Dynamics at an unprecedented scale. His lab is particularly noted for its 2024–2026 breakthroughs in "disease-in-silico therapeutics," where AI is used to simulate how individual cells transition from healthy to diseased states and how they might respond to virtual drug perturbations.
