Head of Large Libraries @ - Engineering better proteins, faster. SynBio+AI/ML - Synthetic biologist and Seattle sports fan.

[Miles Gander @milesgander]

We're growing this effort. If you work in high-throughput experimentation, library generation, screening, or assay development, let's connect. DMs welcome!

Excited to announce I've joined @cradlebio as Head of Large Libraries.

The bottleneck in ML for protein engineering is data. Other domains train on massive existing datasets; in biology, every data point is generated experimentally and doing that well at scale is challenging.

[Miles Gander @milesgander]

At Cradle, we're building new capability for generating high-quality datasets at scale to improve model performance. Cradle's existing platform is remarkable and I'm excited to help expand what it can do.
