Senior🎓
Top SchoolJordi Silvestre-ryan is a Senior Machine Learning Scientist with nine years of experience applying deep learning to biological problems, currently building ML-driven drug discovery tools at insitro. A UC Berkeley–UCSF PhD candidate in Bioengineering, he developed computational methods that halved nanopore sequencing error by combining complementary reads—an approach adopted in Oxford Nanopore’s basecaller. Jordi has transitioned his academic expertise in stochastic gene-regulatory modeling and biophysical ensemble fitting into industry roles at Atomwise/Numerion Labs, designing benchmarks and models to screen ultra-large chemical libraries. Based in the Bay Area, he blends rigorous probabilistic modeling with practical productionization of ML for biology, and has a track record of turning noisy experimental data into deployable algorithms.
