Petar Stojanov

I am a postdoctoral researcher at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard, where I am supervised by Prof. Gad Getz. I previously received my PhD in Computer Science at Carnegie Mellon University, where I was fortunate to be advised by Jaime Carbonell and Kun Zhang. Prior to that, I was an associate computational biologist at the Getz Lab.

My research interests span machine learning and computational biology. I am currently very interested in how causal discovery methodology can be applied and further improved for the purpose of analyzing genomic data such as cancer mutation and single-cell RNA sequencing data, in order to understand causal relationships which are are relevant to cancer progression. My doctoral research was in transfer learning and domain adaptation from the causal perspective, and I am still interested and active in this field.
