Summary
Daniel Mattox is a Senior AI Scientist and computational biologist with nine years of experience applying machine learning and structural biology to high-dimensional immunology and disease datasets. He builds sequence- and structure-based models to predict T cell receptor specificity, translating in-house repertoire and multiomics data into actionable insights for therapeutic discovery. His PhD work at Dartmouth combined statistical and physical models to dissect proteinâglycan interactions, giving him a rare blend of quantitative rigor and structural intuition. At Adaptive he partnered with Microsoft on antigen mapping that revealed novel signals in multiple sclerosis, and he now continues this translational focus at Augment Biologics. He is fluent in Python and R, grounded in biostatistics and epidemiology, and comfortable moving models from research into production-ready ML tools. Outside typical bioinformatics roles, he has experience building end-to-end data pipelines for complex -omics projects (including work at NASA Ames), which informs his pragmatic approach to scalable analysis.
