Field notes
The page uses three questions as its information architecture rather than presenting a conventional chronological CV. Its examples move between protein sequences, protein structures, materials models, and language models, including a claim that representations can converge while reasoning diverges. The biography also connects this research to practical experience: a decade of experimental and computational biology, two startups, and approximately £490K raised for the first.
