About Andi Dhroso

I am a computer scientist with 10+ years of interdisciplinary experience in bioinformatics of complex disease, computational genomics, biomedical data analytics, and database optimizations. Additionally, I have experience in machine learning, and statistical genetics. In particular, I have developed computational methods, hardware-optimized algorithms to understand the evolution of animal and plant genomes on a large scale.In machine learning, I have worked on scalable inference methods for Support Vector Machine models to discriminate cancer from non-cancerous cell-lines irrespective of the tissue of origin. More recently, I have created a framework to detect protein effectors in gram-negative bacteria across all six secretion systems without prior knowledge of bacterial secretion system(s) or cryptic secretion signals.Specialties:Scale native AWS, Nextflow, Comparative & Computational Genomics, Machine Learning, Biomedical Data Mining, Information visualization, High-Performance Computing, Theory of Computation, Programming/Script Languages, Unix, Mobile/Web Applications.
