Leonardo Pellegrina

I am an Assistant Professor (RTDa) at the Department of Information Engineering (DEI) of the University of Padova, and part of the AIDA Lab. In my research I work on novel efficient and rigorous algorithms for Data Mining and Computational Biology.
Previously, I was a PostDoc and Ph.D. student in Information Engineering at DEI at the University of Padova, under the supervision of Prof. Fabio Vandin. I also had the amazing opportunity of visiting the Department of Computer Science of Brown University, as a Visiting Research Fellow under the supervision of Prof. Eli Upfal.
