NLM Senior Investigator Teresa Przytycka, PhD, Selected as International Society for Computational Biology Fellow

March three, 2021

Teresa Przytycka, PhD, senior investigator in the Computational Biology Branch of the Countrywide Library of Medicine’s (NLM’s) Countrywide Centre for Biotechnology Facts, has been picked as a 2021 Fellow of the Worldwide Society for Computational Biology (ISCB).

ICSB identified Dr. Przytycka for her elementary algorithmic contributions to a large range of challenges in computational units biology, specifically in network assessment, network-dependent approaches to uncover disease genes, network reconstruction, regulatory roles of DNA conformation dynamics and RNA aptamer assessment. 

“Dr. Przytycka’s investigation has accelerated development in quite a few places of biomedical science,” claimed NLM Director Patricia Flatley Brennan, RN, PhD. “We are extremely proud of this recognition of her outstanding perform and her contributions to the fields of computational biology and bioinformatics.”

An eighteen-year veteran of NLM, Dr. Przytycka qualified prospects the Algorithms for Computational and Methods Biology (AlgoCSB) investigation group, which develops computational procedures that advance units-level understanding of cancer and other advanced health conditions, and the principles of gene regulation.
