Exploring Health, Disease, and Aging with AI

"All the properties of matter are so connected that we can scarcely imagine one thoroughly explained, without our seeing its relation to all the others; without, in fact, having the explanation of all."

— Lord Kelvin

How I Got Here

Photographed by Martin Scholler

I come from a family of engineers, scientists, and farmers. We have always built things together.  Just months before completing his first spec home, my brother Stephen was diagnosed with ALS at the age of 29.  Stephen's illness united us in supporting him live his best life. We dedicated ourselves to building institutions, platforms, and tools to improve how we understand and treat disease.

Stephen's grace and humor in the face of ALS and his thoughtful willingness to experiment and share his experience guide my approach to science and medicine. I am devoted to measuring and understanding human health and empowering individuals with the tools to understand and improve their health, disease, and aging.
