Hi, I'm Tyler

I'm a Machine Learning Engineer and Computational Biologist in Boston.

This is my website, check it out!
I'm a computational biologist working at the intersection of cancer and machine learning. I work to develop models that generate novel biological hypotheses at Harvard Medical School in the Laboratory for Systems Pharmacology and Nirmal Lab using AI and digital pathology. Before this I did both wet and dry lab with single-cell RNA sequencing in the Brock Lab.

About me

I'm a computational biologist. This means (to me) that I use computers to solve biological problems. You can check out my work below or on my GitHub page. I've worked with clinical data, performed in-vivo experiments, and grown and manipulated in-vitro cell lines to help untangle biological questions. I've also made databases, frontends, generated hundreds of different machine learning models, used numerical and statistical methods, and much more along the way. I love 'leveling up' by adding new computational methods to my toolbox.
In my free time, I love going to concerts, trying new food and drink, and playing pickleball!
