Summary
Parijat Tripathi is a postdoctoral research scientist based in Cologne with 11 years of experience applying computational genomics and machine learning to neurodegeneration, immunology, and rare disease research. At Uniklinik Köln he leads multi-omics integration within the European Alzheimer’s Disease Biobank, combining GWAS, EWAS, TWAS, mixed models and ML to uncover genetic and epigenetic drivers of cognitive decline. Previously he directed single-cell and spatial transcriptomics analyses at Karolinska, building scalable HPC pipelines and translating spatial immune-epithelial interactions into mechanistic insight for IBD. His work blends deep methodological innovation—novel feature-selection algorithms, circular RNA detection, and reproducible large-scale workflows—with hands-on biological interpretation. Comfortable moving between low-level algorithm development and high-dimensional biological data, he has a track record of turning complex omics datasets into actionable hypotheses for precision medicine. A PhD-trained bioinformatician who often writes production-ready pipelines, he uniquely pairs evolutionary and structural bioinformatics roots with modern single-cell and neurogenetics expertise.
