Senior🎓
Top SchoolTanner Jensen is a postdoctoral researcher at Stanford Medicine with a PhD in Genetics and eight years of experience applying machine learning and bioinformatics to infectious disease problems. He leads computational efforts to discover antimicrobial motifs from massive peptide libraries and to detect resistance genes from optical sequencing data using deep neural networks. Prior roles at Mayo Clinic and BYU honed his blend of wet-lab awareness and algorithmic rigor, enabling practical translational research. Based in San Francisco, he combines a strong foundation in mathematics and computer science with creative problem-solving to bridge data science and healthcare. Though relatively new to ML, Tanner has rapidly translated models into actionable diagnostics and drug-discovery pipelines. He is pursuing opportunities that expand his impact in bioinformatics, data science, or software engineering while continuing to drive research that can improve patient outcomes.
