Bar Jacobi
I am an incoming PhD student in Computer Science at the University of Washington, where I will work on computational approaches for modeling biological systems.
I am completing an M.Sc. in Bioinformatics at Tel Aviv University in Prof. Adi Stern’s lab. I develop methods for annotating viral proteins using sequence, predicted structure, evolutionary information, and protein language models.
Before pursuing research in computational biology, I earned a B.Sc. in Computer Science at the Technion and later worked as a Production Engineer at Meta.
