Dr. P. (Pavel) Sinitcyn

Universitair docent
AI Technology for Life

I am working as an Assistant Professor in AI Technology for Life (Department of Information and Computing Sciences) and Biomolecular Mass Spectrometry and Proteomics (Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences) groups at Utrecht University. My research focuses on computational methods for analyzing mass spectrometry-based proteomics data, including advanced machine learning techniques.

Previously, I conducted my postdoctoral research at the University of Wisconsin-Madison (Madison, WI, US) in the laboratory of Joshua Coon, where I worked on the deep proteome sequencing method, analyzed phospho-proteomics data from a new mass analyzer (Astral), and collaborate on a new high-throughput quality control for therapeutic antibody sequencing.

During my PhD at the Max Planck Institute of Biochemistry (Munich, DE) in the laboratory of Jürgen Cox, I was involved in the development of MaxQuant, MaxDIA, and Perseus, as well as various application projects.

Outside of academia, I greatly enjoy sailing, competitive programming, and hiking.
