Biosketch Dr. Dmitry Kobak
Dmitry Kobak studied computer science and physics in St. Petersburg, Russia. He did PhD in computational neuroscience between Freiburg, Germany, and Imperial College London, UK, before moving to the Champalimaud Institute in Portugal for his postdoc. His interests gradually shifted towards data science and machine learning, and since 2017 he is working in the University of Tübingen, Germany, on data analysis of single-cell transcriptomic data. He is fascinated by manifold learning and dimensionality reduction, and is obsessed with figuring out how exactly various machine learning methods work.
