Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAlberto Valdeolivas is a Principal Scientist based in Basel with nine years of experience at the intersection of computational biology, spatial omics and AI-driven drug discovery. He combines a physics background and a prior 5+ year career in enterprise IT with a PhD in Bioinformatics, giving him deep fluency in both software engineering and biological algorithm design. At Roche he has led multimodal data integration efforts, fusing spatial gene expression with digital pathology to generate richer disease models and actionable insights for preclinical programs. He mentors interns, PhD students and postdocs while driving adoption of novel platforms and computational strategies across disease areas. Notably, his academic work extended graph-theory methods to multiplex networks—an approach he has translated into practical tools for target discovery and biomarker selection.
