Bio

I'm Alex, I found my way here through recommendations from contacts involved in AI safety. 

I started thinking about how to have a more concrete impact while finishing my comp sci PhD (quantum cryptography and adversarial scenarios), so I pivoted to medicine. Stayed close to those "red team" roots by getting as much exposure as possible to CBRN-related fields, including nuclear medicine, Ebola preparedness, and got deployed in intensive care at peak-COVID.

I'm currently a postdoc scientist at Yale on AI+immunobiology, and interested in AI/bio safety as a long-term career. 

On the less serious side, I do martial arts, rock climbing and strongman, and design board games as a hobby.

Happy to connect with anyone sharing interests!

How I can help others

I'll be happy to answer any questions I can in my areas of expertise (bio/medicine, physics, mathematics of computer science), or about what life is like in academia and health care environments.
