Van-Giang Trinh

I am a postdoctoral researcher at Polytech Marseille within Aix-Marseille University. I am a member of the LIRICA team, at the LIS laboratory. I defended my PhD at the Japan Advanced Institute of Science and Technology in November 2021. My research mainly focuses on theoretical computer science, artificial intelligence, and computational systems biology. You can take a look at my complete curriculum vitae.

Research

My PhD has been supervised by Prof. Kunihiko Hiraishi. It has been conducted at the Japan Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (Nomi, Ishikawa, Japan). I worked on attractor detection and optimal control of Boolean networks. The manuscript can be found here and the defense slides here. Currently, I focus on Boolean networks, Petri nets, answer set programming, and their applications to modeling, analysis, and control of biological systems.
