Miroslava Cuperlovic-Culf
National Research Council of Canada
Senior Research Officer and Team Leader
Miroslava Cuperlovic-Culf is a Senior Research Officer and Team leader with National Research Council of Canada. Dr. Cuperlovic-Culf completed a PhD in Physical Chemistry at University of California, Santa Barbara and Postdoc in Theoretical Biophysics at University of British Columbia.
Miroslava’s work is in the application of machine learning and data mining to life sciences with particular focus of the development of novel diagnostic and treatment methods as well as simulation methods for in silico medicine. Miroslava is particularly involved in metabolomics and metabolism modeling and an example is her authored book “NMR Metabolomics in Cancer Research”. Dr. Cuperlovic-Culf has unique training in both experimental and data sciences for molecular and high throughput data analysis and this allows her to work very productively with both experimentalists and clinicians on one side and computer scientists and mathematicians on the other. Within NRC’s AI for Design challenge program she will be working with a team of researchers and collaborators on the development of universal AI methodologies for design of better human or plant disease treatments.
