Biotech deep-dives

I’m a “science generalist” — math PhD, worked at various startups that use AI/ML for different applications (drug discovery, self-driving vehicles, semiconductor manufacturing) and I’ve been blogging about science/tech topics for a general audience for many years.

I’m interested in “big” speculative technological ambitions — longevity, human enhancement, etc, the stuff on Francis Bacon’s wishlist — and making clear-headed assessments of where we are now and what we’d need to do to get to the “big” goals.

Brooklyn mom & internet weirdo

I like spending time with my kids (ages 2 and 6), cooking, and reading (mostly history these days).
