🎓
Top SchoolAndy Edwards is a translational research and technology executive with a PhD in Integrative Physiology and eight years of leadership driving multidisciplinary teams at the intersection of computational biology, cardiac electrophysiology, and safety pharmacology. Currently serving as COO of Organos while continuing as Chief Research Scientist at Simula, he blends hands‑on technical depth—from systems biology and biophysics to stem cell research—with operational experience as a former CTO. His career spans academia and industry, including doctoral program leadership and adjunct faculty roles, giving him a rare ability to translate complex mechanistic science into product and program delivery. Based in Greater Sacramento, he is equally comfortable steering organizational strategy and diving into computational modeling that informs drug safety decisions.
