Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSimone Marini is an Assistant Professor and computational bioinformatician with nine years of experience designing AI-driven prediction models for medicine, molecular biology, and public health. Based at the University of Florida and advising enGenome, she develops tools that both generate biological hypotheses and support clinical/public-health decisions across HIV, SARS-CoV-2, antimicrobial resistance, and inflammatory processes. Her work bridges mathematical modeling and heterogeneous biomedical data to extract mechanistic insight and enable causal and prognostic inference. Trained with a PhD in Bioengineering from HKUST and postdoctoral stints in Italy and Japan, she combines rigorous academic research with translational impact. Unusually, she pairs deep methodological work with hands-on teaching and advisory roles, making her equally fluent in theory, implementation, and real-world deployment.
