Albert Dominguez Mantes
PhD Student
École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL)
Hey there! I’m a PhD student in the Weigert group and the La Manno group at EPFL in Switzerland. I hold a BSc in Data Science and Engineering by the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC), and I’m currently enroled in the Computational Biology PhD program at EPFL.
I’m developing computational methods for the analysis of fluorescence microscopy images. One of my main focus is on developing methods that are easily adoptable for other researchers. As such, I’m big on open source and best software engineering practices.
Previously, I worked on ML-based methods for population genetics in the Bustamante lab at Stanford University, in collaboration with the Image Processing group at Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC).
Outside of academia, I spent two great years working as a Data Scientist at a startup, Abi Global Health, where I developed and deployed NLP models for usage in a conversational setting. I was also involved in maintaining the main product’s backend as well as general analytics.
