Dr Mykola Pinkevych

Post-Doc Res Fellow (UNSW)
  • BSc in Applied Mathematics from Kyiv National Taras Shevchenko University,  Kyiv Ukraine
  • MSc in Social Informatics from Kyiv National Taras Shevchenko University, Kyiv Ukraine.
  • PhD in pathology from the University of New South Wales at School of Medical Sciences.
Medicine & Health
The Kirby Institute

During my undergraduate study, I learned numerous mathematical and computing method. My Master’s degree course taught to apply these skills for analysis of social, ecological and biological processes. During my PhD candidature, I gained the experience of using mathematical and computing methods for the analysis of complex experimental data predominantly of malaria. Currently, I work as a postdoctoral research fellow at Kirby Institute, UNSW in the Infection Analytics Program studying the dynamics of HIV infection.
