Machine Learning Scientist

Postdoctoral Scholar (2019-2022). Luca obtained his PhD in Physics and Chemistry of Biological Systems at SISSA, Trieste (Italy). As a postdoc in the Bahar lab at the University of Pittsburgh, he applied machine learning to integrate the analysis of structural dynamics of proteins in the prediction of the effects of missense variants. He joined the Keiser lab in 2019, where he worked on applying deep learning techniques to analyze molecular dynamics trajectories. He enjoys mounting biking and hiking in his free time.
