Matteo Di Bernardo Bio
Matteo Di Bernardo is a graduate student in the Cheeseman Lab, developing computational approaches for microscopy-based functional genomics screens. He combines scalable data processing methods with machine learning to analyze cellular mechanisms through high-throughput microscopy. His work currently focuses on morphological screens that probe fundamental cell biology processes, and he aims to apply these computational tools to more complex cellular states in development and cancer.
About the Whitehead Innovation Initiative
The Whitehead Innovation Initiative (WII) is a bold program advancing cutting-edge bio-AI leadership, which sponsors community-building and educational programs, funding opportunities, and computational resources at Whitehead Institute. The goal of the initiative is to spark innovation at the intersection of biomedical research and AI, foster partnerships between biomedical and computational researchers, facilitate collaboration, and support individual projects through expanded, state of the art computational infrastructure, educational resources, funding opportunities and social events.
