🎉 A belated welcome to our newest team members! 🎉
We're thrilled to announce the addition of three exceptional talents to the Biographica team: Guy Aglionby, Paride Antinucci and Dennis Schwartz. Their expertise in Natural Language Processing (NLP), Graph Machine Learning (ML), and Data Engineering is instrumental in advancing our mission: to uncover the genes responsible for more productive, sustainable, and climate-resilient crops.
📕 With a PhD in NLP from Cambridge, and multiple publications on knowledge graph design and graph ML for NLP, Guy is pioneering integration of literature into our knowledge graphs to enhance our gene discovery processes.
📈 Paride has a multidisciplinary background in molecular biology and computational neuroscience (PhD, King’s College London; Postdoc, UCL), as well as ML research for drug target discovery. He's now applying this expertise to design graph-based methods for target discovery in plants.
💽 Dennis has a wealth of experience as a data engineer and bioinformatician, with 7+ years in biotech startups and an MSc in bioinformatics from TU Munich. At Biographica, he leads development of robust, efficient and scalable data infrastructure.
In just two months, Guy, Dennis and Paride have had a huge impact: enhancing our protein analytics, literature ingestion pipelines, and overall data and codebase efficiency. We're hugely excited for the next chapter. Welcome aboard, Guy, Paride, and Dennis!
