Summary
🎓
Top SchoolGabriel Mcdonnell-maayan is a PhD candidate and Doctoral Fellow at Boston University and Just Horizons Alliance who applies complexity science, agent-based modeling, system dynamics, and machine learning to real-world social challenges. With eight years of engineering experience at organizations like MITRE and internships spanning GPU parallelism to IoT and CAD workflows, he blends rigorous software development with deep computational research. His primary focus is computationally driven suicide prevention—building in silico intervention tests that inform policymakers—while also contributing to projects on sex trafficking, polarization, pandemic response, and food security. Gabe’s background in both applied R&D and production engineering gives him a rare ability to move models from prototype to practical decision-support tools. He is based in Greater Boston and brings a hands-on, interdisciplinary approach honed through academic and industry collaboration.
