Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolKaterina Nastou is a bioinformatics researcher with eight years of experience applying deep learning and systems biology to large-scale proteomics and multi-omics problems. She has driven core development for widely used resources such as the STRING database while advancing Transformer-based biomedical text mining to extract molecular relation networks. Her recent work focuses on biomarker detection for pregnancy-related disorders at Statens Serum Institut, building on postdoctoral research that integrated NLP, named-entity recognition, and network modeling. Comfortable moving between hands-on model development, database engineering, and teaching, she combines rigorous academic training (PhD in Bioinformatics) with practical short-term exchanges in industry and NLP labs. An understated strength is her track record of upgrading dictionary-based text-mining pipelines with deep-learning relation extraction to improve the physical interaction subnetworks used by the research community.
