I am an Assistant Professor of Chemical Engineering at Stanford University, the Dieter Schwarz Foundation Stanford Data Science Faculty Fellow, and an Innovation Investigator at Arc Institute. I supervise the Laboratory of Evolutionary Design, where we conduct research at the intersection of biology and machine learning. Here is a curriculum vitae.
I was previously a Stanford Science Fellow in the Stanford University School of Medicine and a researcher at Meta AI. I completed my Ph.D. at MIT CSAIL and was an undergraduate at Stanford University.
My other interests include “an Hydroptique immoderate desire of humane learning and languages,” with a particular attraction to early modern lyric poetry. Some of my favorite books can be found here.
