doc. RNDr. Denis Horváth, PhD.

Education:

MSc. solid-state physics; Dept. of Experimental physics, Faculty of Science, UPJŠ, Košice, Slovakia
PhD. solid-state physics; Dept. of Magnetism, Institute of Experimental Physics, Slovak Academy of Sciences, Košice, Slovakia

Research interests:

He is an experienced researcher working in the interdisciplinary teams almost 25 years. His present mission is to develop and implement the theoretical models of the cancer progression with the focus on the concepts of phenotypic plasticity and intratumoral heterogeneity and multi-agent therapies. Before joining CIB group Dr. Horvath worked as junior scientist at the department of theoretical physics of Slovak Academy of Sciences and later in the Department of Theoretical Physics and Astrophysics of the P.J. Šafárik University. The contributions from this periods cover the theory of turbulence and the theory of Ising spin systems. Also worthy of note is his experience with data analysis and numerical modeling, theory and simulation of the complex and biological systems combined with the solving of the optimization problems. Dr. Horvath is entering into development of various interdisciplinary cooperations for many years. Systematic joint research conducted with economic and telecommunication informatics groups at the Technical University of Košice has become an integral part of his research activities.
