A close collaboration between biologists and computer scientists. So proud of my colleague Dr. Arash Alavi who joined us in 2018 as a computer scientist with a background in cybersecurity, and today he’s the first author of this Nature Medicine paper: “Real-time Alerting System for COVID-19 and Other Stress Events using Wearable Data”:

In light of that, today, we are excited to announce the launch of our center “Stanford Deep Data Research Computing Center (DDRCC)” where researchers without any background in healthcare will have the opportunity to learn about medical applications and share with us how to approach these challenges from different perspectives.

Abtin began his research career as a bench scientist working on translational cell therapy and tissue engineering regenerative medicine projects. He has worked in academia and several pharmaceutical companies, such as the Board of Governors Regenerative Medicine Institute, Amgen, ATUM, Merck, and Bristol-Myers Squibb. At Mekonos, Abtin established and led the biology department. Abtin holds a master’s degree in biotechnology from Georgetown University where he received a scholarship from the school of medicine. Throughout his career, Abtin became passionate about the applications of bioinformatics in biology and medicine. Therefore, Abtin started his bioinformatics Ph.D. in 2020 as a student in an interuniversity program, including the University of Barcelona, Universitat Oberta de Catalunya, and six other universities in Spain. He is now a Ph.D. candidate in bioinformatics.
