Andrey Przhibelskiy is a PhD-trained bioinformatics researcher and university lecturer based in Helsinki with 14 years of experience at the intersection of computational biology and software engineering. He has contributed to algorithmic genome assembly work—including early SPAdes development for challenging single-cell MDA data—and progressed from junior research roles to a University Researcher position at the University of Helsinki. Andrey teaches next-generation sequencing analysis to master’s students and public course attendees, pairing deep research insight with hands-on instruction. With a background in software engineering and informatics, he blends rigorous algorithm design, reproducible bioinformatics pipelines, and practical mentoring, often tackling problems that arise from noisy, single-cell datasets.
