Mathieu Daniel Blanchette is a computational biologist and Director of the School of Computer Science at McGill University. His research focuses on developing new algorithms for the detection of functional regions in DNA sequences.[1][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10]
Education
Blanchette studied mathematics and computer science at Bachelor of Science (1997) level, before studying computer science at Master of Science (1998) level, both at the Université de Montréal. He gained his PhD from the University of Washington in 2002, under the supervision of Martin Tompa.[2][11] His thesis, titled Algorithms for phylogenetic footprinting,[2] presented the first reasonable algorithm for gene order phylogeny and elaborated on phylogenetic footprinting.[12] Following this, he worked as a postdoctoral researcher at the Center for Biomolecular Science and Engineering at the University of California, Santa Cruz, working with David Haussler.[11][12]
