Silvio Bicciato is assistant professor of Industrial Bioengineering at Faculty of Biosciences and Biotechnologies, University of Modena and Reggio Emilia. His principal research interest is the design and application of database-mining algorithms based on statistical analysis, pattern recognition, and artificial neural networks, and bioinformatics tools for the analysis of molecular data from high-throughput technologies. He is the scientific coordinator of the bioinformatics unit in several projects funded by national and international institutions (MIUR FIRB, MIUR COFIN, OncoSuisse). He is the PI of Progetto di Eccellenza 2006 “A computational approach to the study of skeletal muscle genomic expression in health and disease” funded by Fondazione Cassa di Risparmio di Padova e Rovigo. He is author of more than 50 publications on international journals, books and proceedings of international conferences. He serves in the Editorial Board of Cancer Informatics.
Educational activity
He is giving the classes of Bioinformatics (basic and advanced) at the School of Biotechnologies of the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia and the classes of Cellular Bioengineering and Bioengineering for Genomics at the School of Bioengineering at the University of Padova.
Main Research Topics
Bioinformatics and computational methods for the analysis of high-throughput molecular signals.
