Luca Cappelletti is a Computer Science PhD student in the AnacletoLAB, the Computational Biology and Bioinformatics lab of the University of Milan. In 2017 he received a BSc in Computer Engineering at Polytechnic University of Milan, Italy and in 2019 a MSc in computer Science at Università degli Studi of Milan, Italy. His current research involves developing high-performance tools to run machine learning tasks on graphs, such as processing, embedding, link prediction, node and edge-label prediction, focusing on bioinformatics applications.
