Dr. Tsurumi's research involves mechanistic characterization and prediction model development for aging and aging-related diseases, inflammatory conditions and  traumatic injuries. She uses a wide variety of methods, including machine learning applications to analyze 'omics (transcriptomic, epigenomic and proteomic) and electronic health record datasets, conducting epidemiological studies using national survey data, and characterizing clinically relevant molecular mechanisms using Drosophila, mice, and cell culture models.
