Ewa Szczurek
is Professor of AI in Life Sciences at LMU Munich, associate professor at University of Warsaw, and Director of the Institute of AI for Health at Helmholtz Munich.
Her lab focuses on developing probabilistic graphical models and deep generative models for applications in medicine. Research areas include cancer, lung diseases, and antibiotic resistance. Current projects explore how tumors develop, interact with surrounding tissues, and become resistant to treatment. The lab also develops generative models to design antimicrobial peptides that can fight antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
