Summary
Tianyu Cui is a scientist and machine learning researcher with a decade of experience applying probabilistic and deep learning methods to biomedical and drug discovery problems. Currently at Johnson & Johnson Innovative Medicine, he focuses on causal discovery, deep latent variable models, and foundation models for AI-driven drug design. His trajectory spans top research environments—Imperial College, Aalto University (PhD in probabilistic ML), UCL, and industry stints at Silo AI and Invenia—bridging rigorous Bayesian deep learning with practical, interpretable generative techniques. Tianyu’s work emphasizes interpretable priors, interaction detection in genetics, and decision-making under uncertainty, translating academic advances into life-saving applications. Based in London, he combines strong statistical foundations with hands-on model development for high-impact biomedical projects.
