Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolChristopher Rodriguez is a biosecurity research scientist at RAND with a decade of quantitative research experience bridging computational biology, machine learning, and systems-level thinking. He holds a PhD from MIT where his thesis combined evolutionary modeling and mutational theory to probe claims of biological “agelessness,” and he now applies that rigor to AIxBio evaluations and mitigation strategies. His background includes hands-on protein-structure prediction, microfluidics analytics, and neural network robustness studies, giving him fluency across wet-lab questions and computational solutions. Based in Boston, he brings both academic depth and practical scripting/data-science experience to policy-relevant biosecurity problems, and he often draws on techniques from cyber engineering and data mining to detect and reduce biological risk.
