Summary
Christian Dansereau is a mission-driven scientific entrepreneur and machine learning researcher with 14 years of experience building AI solutions for medical imaging and precision medicine. As CEO and founder of Perceiv, he develops deep-learning multimodal digital biomarkers aimed at improving treatment efficacy for aging-related diseases and has a strong track record in multisite MRI analysis and clinical-trial-ready neuroimaging tools. His background combines a PhD in computer science (machine learning) with biomedical engineering and electrical engineering foundations, enabling him to bridge rigorous research, regulatory-minded clinical studies, and product development. He has consulted on MRI acquisition and resting-state fMRI for phase I–III trials and previously co-founded an SMS engagement platform, showing a blend of clinical, entrepreneurial, and systems-level product experience. Notably, he pairs domain expertise in Alzheimer’s functional biomarkers with hands-on deployment of ML/DL pipelines to translate exploratory neuroscience signals into scalable trial biomarkers.
