Andre Levchenko is a John C. Malone Professor of Biomedical Engineering at Yale University and the director of the Yale Systems Biology Institute. He graduated from the Moscow Institute for Physics and Technology with an MS and from Columbia University with doctoral degrees. He completed his postdoctoral studies at the California Institute of Technology, working in genetics and computer science. After, he spent twelve years on the faculty of the Johns Hopkins University biomedical engineering department, eventually becoming a full professor. In 2013, he was recruited to Yale as a founding director of the new Systems Biology Institute.

Levchenko has made foundational contributions to systems biology of cellular signaling, analysis of cell migration, and development of novel micro- and nano-fabricated platforms for assaying cellular functions. He is a fellow of the Biomedical Engineering Society, American Physical Society, American Institute for Medical and Biological Engineering, and an elected member of the Connecticut Academy of Science and Engineering.
