Adam Izdebski
|
|
Adam obtained his master's degree from the Faculty of Mathematics, Informatics, and Mechanics at the University of Warsaw. Before starting his PhD, he spent a year at Institute for Logic, Language and Computation in Amsterdam working on Quantum Machine Learning and was a research intern at Pacmed where he applied causal inference techniques to medical data. He is interested in representation learning and generative modeling applied to molecule design.

Marcin Możejko
|
|
Marcin is a Master of Science in Mathematics from the University of Warsaw. As a part of his thesis, he developed a new, state-of-the-art model of cell classification based on the H\&E stainings for colorectal cancer. Before joining the group, he worked for over five years as a machine learning expert at multiple companies, where he developed models for NLP, CV, and predictive analytics tasks. In his free time, he is a perfume and Arvo Part's music passionate.

Kazimierz Oksza-Orzechowski
|
|
Kazik is taking his first steps in the field of Bioinformatics, working
on probabilistic graphical models of the tumour microenvironment
(specifically cell-to-clone mapping). During his doctoral studies he
aims to learn more about the methods of combining graphical models with
deep learning, and apply them to high-thoroughput tumour data. Other
interests include guitar playing and all manner of sports.

Magdalena Budzińska (visiting PhD student)
|
|
Magdalena is a PhD candidate at the Sydney Medical School, The University of Sydney, Australia, working on deciphering pre-cancerous genomic alterations occurring in liver DNA leading to development of liver cancer (Hepatocellular Carcinoma, HCC). She obtained her Master’s degree in Biotechnology with major in Bioinformatics from the Wroclaw University of Science and Technology. Currently, she’s a visiting researcher at the University of Warsaw. Her work during the visit is focusing on identification of synthetic lethal interaction partners with genes that are commonly altered by somatic mutations in hepatocellular carcinoma.
