Welcome

Hi! My name is Artem, I'm currently a PhD student at Heidelberg University, working on the intersection of AI and computational biology under the supervision of Moritz Gerstung. My current work is focused on using large-scale medical datasets to establish transformer-based models of disease risk prediction based on medical history. Previously I was working on image-based models for subtyping tumours of the central nervous system and designing Bayesian generative models for spatial transcriptomics data. In the previous life I was a chemist.

More broadly, I'm interested in the common points between AI and biology - both ways - developing biology-inspired AI and using AI to build data-driven simulations of biological processes. I'm fascinated by complex systems and their emergent properties, such as evolution, repair and self-organization.

When not doing research, I enjoy astrophotography, scuba diving, reading science fiction, japanese 🐾 nyaa~! ✨ animation 🐾 nyaa~! ✨ .
