I am interested in what makes complex systems tick – in particularly those at the confluence of living systems, physical systems and computing systems.<\/p>\n
As of now, I am in the Distributed Computing Laboratory<\/a> at the Ecole Polytechnique F\u00e9d\u00e9rale of Lausanne, focusing on how population genetics can help us to better detect deep-fakes<\/a> and on how theory of error resilience in distributed computing can help us to better understand biological organisms<\/a>.<\/p>\n Before that I did a post-doctoral fellowship in the Joel Bader<\/a> and Andrew Ewald<\/a> labs as part of the CDT2 consortium<\/a> – building tools and pipelines<\/a> to prioritize the targets to be explored to prevent and stop breast cancer metastasis.<\/p>\n I did my PhD in the Dr.\u00a0Rong Li’s<\/a> lab at Johns Hopkins Cell Biology department<\/a> and Stowers Institute for Medical Research<\/a>, with the collaboration of the CNRS Biology of Genomes lab<\/a> at UPMC<\/a> Paris University Life Complexities doctoral school<\/a>. My PhD focused on the mechanisms of rapid adaptation to stress in biological organisms, which led me to work on aneuploidy – both in yeast<\/a> and cancer<\/a>, theoretical population genetics<\/a> and novel pathway for protein degradation<\/a>.<\/p>\n As an Ecole Polytechnique<\/a> engineering and an EPF Lausanne<\/a> MSc student, I also had the opportunity to work on cell motility<\/a>,\u00a0\u00a0last universal common ancestor genome reconstruction<\/a>, as well as tools for better drug off-target effects prediction and drug re-purposing<\/a> – respectively under the supervision of Drs Rong Li and Arcady Mushegian at the Stowers Institute for Medical Research and\u00a0<\/span>Dr. Borune’s<\/a> lab at <\/span>UCSD<\/a>.<\/p>\n I also tweet as @andrei_chiffa<\/a> on Twitter. You can find my CV on LinkedIn<\/a>.
