Using data to solve biological problems
PhD student Gavriel Olshansky‘s research is at the intersection of mathematics and medical science finding better ways to identify patterns in large biological data sets that can help us pinpoint markers of disease.
Gavriel is one of the first students to be enrolled in the new Baker Department for Cardiometabolic Health at the Melbourne Medical School, a partnership between the Baker Institute and the University of Melbourne. While his background is in mathematics and statistics, he is no stranger to the lab, starting at the Institute two years ago, first as a volunteer and then as a bioinformatician.
