MEET OUR TEAM
We believe that diversity is one of our strengths. Over the last few years the lab consisted of people from many nations (Australia, UK, Ireland, Poland, Spain, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, China, Malaysia, Japan, India and Sri Lanka) and from different scientific disciplines (computer science, mathematics, engineering, physics, machine learning, bioinformatics, computational biology, virology, immunology, biotechnology, genomics, chemistry, cancer biology and medicine). The lab fosters an environment where everyone is treated equally and with respect. Creativity, mentorship and cross-disciplinary thinking is actively encouraged.
