Biography
Dr. Jadwiga Bienkowska is a Head of Computational Biology at Pfizer, Oncology Research and Development. Dr. Bienkowska has over 20 years of experience working in Pharma and Biotech. Over her career she has built and led teams of biologists, data scientists and engineers applying at-scale Computation, Machine Learning and AI to drug development problems. At ORD Dr. Bienkowska focuses on development of breakthrough therapies for Cancer. Dr. Bienkowska’s team works with biologists and clinicians on decoding multimodal data into interpretable models of mechanisms driving cancer progression and resistance to treatment. Insights generated by these models accelerate drug development through new target discovery, MOA studies, patient, and biomarker selection strategies. Dr. Bienkowska contributed to development of therapies for Cancer, Neurological and Immune diseases.
