Jakob Peder Pettersen
I work as a postdoctorial reseach fellow at UiT the Arctic University of Norway where I work on the Centre for New Antibacterial Strategies (CANS). In 2023, I graduated with a PhD in Biotechnology from the Norwegian University of Science and Technology.
My academic experience is centered around systems biology topics such as microbiome analysis, microbial metabolic modeling and gene expression analyses. In addition, I am passionate about scientific software engineering practices and high performance computing.
Session
Did you know you can create an array of non-uniform data types, run it through a differential equation solver and still ensure there is no need for runtime type inference? We will dive into Julia's array interface and explore how it allows us to implement such unusual, yet useful, data structures in a type-stable manner.
