Hi!
I'm Jan.
SCIENCE
I am an AI/ML Product Manager at Absci, where I support Absci's mission to bring precision therapeutics to patients faster via AI-powered drug discovery and creation.
Previously I was an AI/ML Product Manager at PathAI, where I led product development and translational science for PathAI's flagship AI-powered digital pathology products in metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH), a metabolic liver disease with poor prognosis. I hope that the tools we built will help identify effective therapies and improve outcomes for MASH patients.
Prior to joining PathAI, I completed a PhD in Speech and Hearing Bioscience and Technology (SHBT) at Harvard University. I designed, fabricated, and patented an endomicroscope that visualizes cells inside the cochlea— the small, snail-shaped organ that shelters the primary sensory receptors for hearing. I hope that our device will improve diagnostics for deafness, the most common sensory deficit in the world.
