Research
Andrei Manolache develops representation learning methods for graphs, molecules, and proteins. His work includes learning approximate equivariance through explicit symmetry constraints and combining molecular connectivity with three-dimensional structure in self-supervised pretraining. He also investigates large-scale protein fold classification and pretraining, connecting methods for structured data with biological applications.
