Stefano Monti

Associate Professor, Medicine, School of Medicine

Stefano Monti is an associate professor of computational biology & genomics at the Boston University School of Medicine. He is also an affiliate faculty at the BU Bioinformatics Program and an affiliate member at the Broad Institute of MIT & Harvard. Monti received his B.S. in Computer Science at University of Udine, Italy and both his M.S. and Ph.D. in Intelligent Systems Program at University of Pittsburgh. In addition, he received his postdoc at Robotics Institute at Carnegie Mellon. Monti’s research centers on the development and application of computational approaches for the dissection and characterization of the molecular machinery of human malignancies and their response to environmental insults. This multidisciplinary effort relies on the generation, analysis, and integration of high-throughput genomic data, and it is aimed at the identification of novel therapeutic targets and the development of diagnostic and prognostic markers. Monti’s lab is involved in several projects, with collaborators in the School of Medicine, the School of Public Health, Harvard Medical School, and the Broad Institute.
