Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolPaweł Szczerbiak is a postdoctoral researcher and seasoned AI-focused software engineer with eight years of experience applying deep learning and statistical methods to structural bioinformatics and microbiome research. He develops production-grade frameworks for protein function annotation and large-scale structure prediction, and co-mentors junior scientists while bridging academic research with translational bioinformatics for live biotherapeutics. With a PhD in elementary particle physics and a background spanning theoretical physics, financial product engineering, and HPC-enabled Python development, he combines rigorous mathematical thinking with practical software engineering. Based in Krakow, he is equally comfortable teaching machine learning and building ML pipelines, and is known for tackling orphan protein sequences and creating representative atlases of human gut microbiome proteins—projects that reveal a knack for turning complex biological data into actionable computational resources.
