Onur Karakaslar is a computational biologist and senior machine learning scientist with nine years of experience bridging AI/ML and translational biomedical research, currently a postdoctoral researcher at Leiden University. He holds a PhD in Computational Biology and has led single-cell and multi-omics studies of acute myeloid leukemia that produced multiple peer-reviewed publications and close clinician collaborations. His background spans academic and industry settings—from The Jackson Laboratory’s aging-immunity genomics to engineering work in RF systems—and he combines rigorous algorithm development with practical experimental insight. Beyond research, he has driven science communication and ecosystem-building as Director of Communications for Nucleate Netherlands, reflecting a knack for translating complex science to broader audiences.
