Summary
Frederik Gade is an Industrial PhD student at Novo Nordisk and DTU with 13 years of experience applying AI and bioinformatics to life-science problems. His work spans childhood cancer genomics, structure-based B-cell epitope prediction, Bayesian genotype–phenotype modeling, and machine-learning polygenic risk scores for obesity, combining statistical rigor with practical translational aims. At Novo Nordisk he has moved from master’s-thesis work on explainable models for EHR time series to roles shaping in silico collaborations across therapeutic areas and now a funded PhD project in systems biology and machine intelligence. He is skilled in handling large, irregularly sampled biomedical datasets and integrating methods like functional PCA, knowledge-graph embeddings, and WGS pipelines. Based in Copenhagen, Frederik is motivated by extracting maximal actionable insight from complex biological data to improve patient outcomes. A less obvious strength is his cross-disciplinary fluency—bridging computational method development, clinical sequencing workflows, and industry-driven project delivery.
