Summary
Alexis Praga is a multidisciplinary engineer and physician-scientist blending 11 years of experience in high-performance computing, computational mathematics, and molecular genetics. Holder of a PhD in HPC and an MD in medical biology, he has developed scalable, massively parallel atmospheric chemistry models and transitioned into clinical cytogenetics and molecular diagnostics at CHU de Besançon. His technical toolkit spans MPI/OpenMP, Fortran and profiling on supercomputers, while his medical training grounds him in genetic diagnostics and laboratory practice. Comfortable moving between research labs and hospital settings, he brings a rare combination of low-level parallel computing expertise and hands-on molecular biology. An unconventional detail: he pairs a background in history with deep technical and clinical credentials, reflecting broad intellectual curiosity and communication skills.
