Félix Raimundo is a founder and computational biologist with 11 years of experience applying machine learning to biology and healthcare, currently leading TychoBio.ai from Paris. He combines deep expertise in single-cell multi-omics, epigenetics and molecular biology with hands-on ML engineering demonstrated in contributions to high-profile projects like Google DeepVariant and the mne-python library. Félix has bridged academia and industry—from a PhD and Google/DeepMind research on statistical methods for triple-negative breast cancer to leading computational teams in immunotherapy target discovery—while scaling teams and production workflows. He brings a rare mix of algorithmic rigor (PhD-level biomathematics), low-level engineering experience (Haskell, C, firmware) and practical model evaluation work, making him fluent in both research and production ML for genomics.

Role in this project:
Back-end Developer & Test Automation Engineer
Contributions:9 commits, 4 PRs, 18 comments in 17 days
Contributions summary:Félix's contributions primarily focused on improving the `mne-python` library's functionality and testing infrastructure. They implemented the `apply_baseline` method within the `Evoked` and `Epochs` classes and added a corresponding test to ensure proper baseline correction. Moreover, the user refactored the codebase to utilize the `apply_baseline` function and also corrected documentation and added a new option. Their work improved the library's usability and maintainability.
DeepVariant is an analysis pipeline that uses a deep neural network to call genetic variants from next-generation DNA sequencing data.

Contributions:10 commits in 1 month
Contributions summary:Félix primarily contributed to the development and evaluation of a window selection model for variant calling within the DeepVariant pipeline. Their work includes the creation of a script to generate and train an AlleleCountLinearModel using data from VCF and BAM files. They also developed a model evaluation script to assess the performance of the trained model using precision-recall metrics. Additionally, the user made modifications to the realigner and window selector components, and updated the default window selection model and test scripts.
