Prof. Dr. Jan Komorowski | Infection Discovery | Research Excellence Award
Uppsala University | Sweden
Dr. Jan Komorowski is a Senior Professor of Bioinformatics at Uppsala University, Sweden, and Affiliate Faculty at the Washington National Primate Research Center. With foundational training in computer science and a PhD in logic program evaluation, his research spans modeling complex regulatory mechanisms in cancer, diabetes, and infectious diseases using transcriptomic, genomic, and clinical data. He is recognized for developing interpretable machine learning approaches, including IF-THEN rule-based and decision-tree models, implemented in tools like R.ROSETTA and MCFS. His contributions include early applications of Gene Ontology in AI, HIV interactome modeling, and pediatric lupus subtyping. He has authored highly cited work with over 22,800 citations and an h-index of 51.
