Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAndrew Janowczyk is an assistant professor and computational scientist who blends 11 years of enterprise software engineering with a decade of domain-focused research in digital histopathology and cancer. He builds scalable, GPU-enabled deep learning pipelines and cloud/HPC integrations that have been deployed across multiple clinical challenges—nuclei, epithelium, tubule and mitosis segmentation, lymphocyte detection and cancer subtype classification—often matching or surpassing state-of-the-art results. As a former start-up co-founder and Chief Science Officer, he has operationalized semantic search and large-scale analytics for production environments and helped steer a company to a multi-million CHF valuation. His work spans the full stack from algorithms (Matlab, Python, C/C++) to distributed systems (Solr, AWS, CUDA), and he routinely bridges clinical collaboration with reproducible, high-performance workflows. Trained at IIT Bombay and RPI, he combines rigorous academic methods with practical software craftsmanship to turn complex biomedical data into actionable clinical insight.
