Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolAtabey Ünlü is a machine learning researcher and drug discovery specialist with 8 years of experience, currently serving as Chief Scientific Officer at DeltaWave in Paris. He combines a PhD in Bioinformatics with hands-on expertise building multi-agent systems and end-to-end pipelines for small molecule and protein design. His work at Hacettepe University produced models like DrugGEN and SELFormer, blending graph-based generative models, GANs, transformers and SELFIES representations for molecular design and property prediction. Known for bridging deep research and product-facing systems, he moves ideas from model prototyping to productionized discovery workflows. An often-overlooked strength is his interdisciplinary foundation in molecular biology and genetics, which gives him rare domain fluency when aligning ML architectures to biochemical realities.
