BIOLOGIST · COMPANY BUILDER · OPEN SCIENCE ADVOCATE

I'm co-founder and Chief Scientific Officer of Arcadia Science, an evolutionary biology company that uses computational prediction, technology development, and experimental validation to mine biology across the tree of life and translate it into new therapeutics.

Previously, I was an Associate Professor of Biochemistry and Cell Biology at Dartmouth’s Geisel School of Medicine, where my lab studied how cells build and regulate cilia, tiny antennae found on nearly every cell in the body, using green algae as a model system.

I'm also a longtime advocate for open science. I work to reshape how research is shared and published through organizations like the Astera Institute, because I believe science moves faster when it's done in the open.
