Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolTait Weicht is an applied mathematics PhD candidate and teaching assistant at UC Davis with eight years of experience blending mathematical research and front-end software development. He develops algorithms using tensor decomposition for problems in cryo-electron microscopy, orbit recovery, and over-complete tensor decomposition under the mentorship of Dr. Alexander Wein and Dr. Albert Fannjiang. Prior industry work includes React front-end development and C++ component design for web interfaces, and a published talk on converting command-line tools to web apps. His background in both mathematics and computer science (BS with a 4.0 from Seattle Pacific) enables him to move between theoretical modeling and practical implementation. Less obvious is his experience translating stochastic process theory into potential biological applications, having investigated directed random walk models with links to Brownian motion. Based in Davis, CA, he brings a rare mix of rigorous analysis and production-focused engineering to structure-determination challenges.
