Bhadrachalam Chitturi

Dr. Bhadrachalam Chitturi is a Professor of Instruction at The University of Texas at Dallas (UTD), affiliated with the Erik Jonsson School of Engineering and Computer Science. His professional preparation includes a PhD in Computer Science from UTD (2007) and a postdoctoral fellowship in computational biology at UT Southwestern Medical Center (2011). His research focuses on algorithm design, discrete mathematics, bioinformatics, computational biology, and machine learning. Key contributions include optimal algorithms for permutation sorting, approximation algorithms for genome rearrangements, and deep learning applications for fake news detection.

Dr. Chitturi has been an invited speaker at the American Mathematical Society (2020). His work spans theoretical computer science, with recent emphasis on permutation metrics (e.g., broom and transposition-based sorting) and layered graph algorithms. His machine learning research integrates natural language processing for social media analytics. His bioinformatics contributions include protein structure pattern analysis and gene prioritization in protein interaction networks.

Notable trends in his publications include algorithmic advances in combinatorial optimization, graph theory applications, and cross-disciplinary work blending CS with biological data analysis. His research bridges theoretical foundations with practical applications in healthcare informatics and computational biology.
