Biography

Pawel Przytycki is an Assistant Professor at Boston University's Faculty of Computing & Data Sciences, where he is a core faculty member in the Bioinformatics Program. His research primarily focuses on the development of novel computational methods to understand the regulatory effects of noncoding variants in neurological development diseases. The advancements in high-throughput genetic sequencing enable researchers to unravel the genetics of diseases, yet the data is often sparse, high-dimensional, and heterogeneous across individuals and cells. Pawel's work addresses the challenges involved in developing algorithms for integrating and interpreting large-scale multi-modal genomics data. He was a Bioinformatics Fellow at the Gladstone Institutes, University of California, San Francisco, prior to joining Boston University. Throughout his academic career, he has received several distinguished awards, including the Gladstone Institutes Distinguished Achievement Science Award and the Robert Linda Mahley Career Advancement Award. He was also honored with the NSF Graduate Research Fellowship Program from 2013 to 2018 and was a I.I. Rabi Science Scholar at Columbia University from 2007 to 2011.
