Mike Nichols is a Senior Scientist in Computational Biology with 11 years of experience building AI-driven protein design and high-throughput experimental analysis pipelines at Manifold Bio. He combines a PhD in genetics and molecular biology with machine learning expertise to design therapeutic antibodies and develop statistical frameworks that validate millions of designed molecules simultaneously. Comfortable spanning research, engineering, and production, he translates noisy epigenomic and genomic signal into robust models and scalable deployments. Previously he consulted on epigenomic projects and built bioinformatics tools and web crawlers, reflecting a knack for pragmatic tooling alongside deep analytics. Based in Somerville, MA, he brings a rare blend of wet‑lab genomics training and production-grade computational engineering to accelerate protein engineering.
