Academic:

I'm a co-termianal M.S. student in Computer Science at Stanford University. My undergraduate major was Mathematics. My research interests lie at the interface of machine learning and computational biology. I am currently working on genome-wide identification of protein complexes in Saccharomyces cerevisiae with Professor Daphne Koller at the Stanford Artificial Intelligence Lab. For more information, download my CV.

Personal:

My name is Boyko. Its letters are almost closed under alphabetical inverse: boyko -> ykbok after throwing out 'w' or some equally redundant letter nearby. I was born in Sofia, Bulgaria, where I spent the first 14 years of my life. Eight years ago, my family moved to the United States, where I attended high school and am currently attending university. My mother is a professor of Computer Science and Engineering currently at Zayed University in the United Arab Emirates. My father is a freelance architect, also in Abu Dhabi. My personal interests include travel (most recently to Australia, studying the Great Barrier Reef), hiking with the Stanford Redwood Outdoors Club, social dance, and various outdoor sports: soccer, ultimate frisbee, and triatholon.
