Senior🎓
Top SchoolShashaank Vattikuti is a biomedical engineer, bioinformatician, and founder with eight years of experience building data-driven solutions at the intersection of sleep health, mental health, and computational biology. He founded Trek Mental Health and brings hands-on experience translating research into products, drawing on roles at Walter Reed and multiple appointments at the National Institutes of Health where he led computational and data science efforts. His work blends clinical training (MD) with deep computational expertise from a decade-long postdoctoral track, enabling him to design reproducible models that inform treatment and evaluation cycles. Known for framing problems as Measure | Treat | Evaluate | Repeat, he emphasizes iterative, outcome-focused approaches rather than one-off analyses. Based in Reston, VA, he has a track record of leading interdisciplinary teams in both government and startup settings, often bridging experimental neuroscience with practical AI-driven health tools.
