Jiri Vanicek,
Assistant Professor
Jiri Vanicek earned both his bachelor's degree and doctorate in theoretical physics at Harvard. From 2003 to 2005, he held postdoctoral positions at the Mathematical Sciences Research Institute and the Department of Chemistry of the University of California in Berkeley. From 2005 to 2007, as a fellow at the Simons Center for Systems Biology at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, Jiri Vanicek applied methods of statistical physics to predict microRNA targets in herpesviruses. In 2007 he joined the faculty of École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne, where his research focuses on developing algorithms for quantum molecular dynamics, predicting microRNA targets, and understanding microRNA biology in general.
