Sam Rodriques
San Francisco, California, United States
Summary
👤
SeniorSamuel Rodriques is an inventor-entrepreneur and CEO based in San Francisco with 11 years of experience at the intersection of physics, bioengineering, and AI-driven scientific automation. He founded FutureHouse in 2023 to build an "AI Scientist" for accelerating biological research and launched Edison Scientific in 2025 to commercialize those agents, signaling a rare transition from academic group leader at the Francis Crick Institute to startup CEO. His background includes a PhD-level research trajectory at MIT and Cambridge working on connectomics, molecular recording, and novel nanofabrication techniques, giving him deep fluency in both wet-lab problems and computational methods. Samuel combines hands-on laboratory invention with product-focused commercialization, and unusually for a CEO, has directly closed down and pivoted an academic lab to pursue faster translational impact.
