Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolWesley Tatum is a Principal Engineer with a PhD in Materials Science and nine years of experience applying data science and machine learning to organic materials, polymer dispersions, and pharmaceutical formulation. He leads interdisciplinary teams at Serán BioScience to design and scale amorphous solid dispersion drug products from discovery through clinical phases, blending hands-on formulation, microscopy, and GMP/ICH-aligned development. His background spans postdoctoral NLP/text-mining for materials research and open-source toolkit development for AFM, spectroscopy, and device characterization using PyTorch, Scikit-Learn, and Scikit-Image. Wesley pairs deep experimental expertise—SEM instrument management and advanced image analysis—with a drive to translate modeling and automation into practical characterization workflows. Based in Bend, Oregon, he is active in leadership and diversity initiatives and often operates where computational tools reveal mechanistic insight not obvious from experiments alone.
