Russian-born American professor of computational mass spectrometry
Pavel Arkadevich Pevzner (
Russian : Павел Аркадьевич Певзнер ) is the Ronald R. Taylor Professor of Computer Science and director of the
NIH
Center for Computational Mass Spectrometry at
University of California, San Diego .
[3]
[4]
[5] He serves on the editorial board of
PLoS Computational Biology and he is a member of the
Genome Institute of Singapore scientific advisory board.

Education
Pevzner received his Ph.D. in mathematics and physics from the
Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology while working for the Russian Research Institute for Genetics and Selection of Industrial Microorganisms (NII Genetika). In 1990, he joined
Michael Waterman 's laboratory in the Department of Mathematics at the
University of Southern California for two years as a
postdoctoral research associate.
Career and research
Pevzner is interested in new approaches to teaching computational molecular biology at both undergraduate and graduate level,
[7]
[8] serving as a founding instructor for the
bioinformatics specialization on
Coursera
[9] and having written several books on
bioinformatics and
computational biology .

In 1992, Pevzner took the position of
associate professor at
Pennsylvania State University .
In 1995, Pevzner moved back to the University of Southern California as a professor of mathematics, computer science, and molecular biology. Since 2000, he has been the Ronald R. Taylor Professor of Computer Science at the
University of California, San Diego and he is the director of the
