Biography

Tomasz Kociumaka received the B.Sc., M.Sc., and Ph.D. degrees in computer science from the University of Warsaw, Poland. He has been a Post-Doctoral Researcher at Bar-Ilan University, Israel; the University of California at Berkeley, Berkeley, CA, USA; and the Max Planck Institute for Informatics, Saarbrücken, Germany. He studies string problems from multiple perspectives, including combinatorics on words, dynamic algorithms, fine-grained complexity, streaming and sketching, and sublinear algorithms. He is the coauthor of over 100 conferences and journal papers. His research focuses on designing efficient algorithms for processing strings with a particular focus on sequence similarity measures, approximate pattern matching, lossless data compression, and data structures. He has served as a program committee member for ten international conferences. He was a recipient of the Cor Baayen Young Researcher Award in 2021 and the Witold Lipski Prize in 2018.
