I build the full stack — hardware, computation, experimental biology — to grow human organs.
Background
I hold a Ph.D. in Biochemistry and Molecular Biophysics from Caltech, completed a postdoctoral fellowship at MIT in Biological Engineering, and attended the MBL Embryology course at Woods Hole.
At eGenesis, I established the computational biology core and designed promoters for stable, pan-tissue expression of immunosuppressive transgenes in pigs — work that contributed to the first pig-to-human kidney transplant. At Altos Labs, I led AI/ML initiatives and wet-lab investigations into partial reprogramming, managing a team of computational and bench scientists.
The methods are computational and experimental: single-cell genomics, perturbational screens, embryology. I’m trained across diverse model systems — pigs, macaques, C. elegans, and bacteria. This range — from worm to pig, bench to algorithm — is the point.
