I have 15 years experience in the biotech sector in various business development and research roles, with a focus in the last few years on AI and data science applications. Over the years I have seen the pain points felt by practitioners in the many stages of drug development and my focus now is on helping biotech employees and leadership pick the right AI-enabled tech stack that will help them overcome bottlenecks and achieve their business goals most effectively. Whether your business is in biotech or another industry and you find yourself saying, "I know I want to use AI, but I just don't know how!", then I'm your guy. I help biotech and life sciences companies adopt AI strategically, selecting and implementing the right tools to accelerate R&D, streamline operations, and make better decisions with data. I bring years of hands-on drug development experience (Sanofi Genzyme, Hopewell Therapeutics, NanoString Technologies) combined with deep expertise in the current AI/ML tools landscape for life sciences. Through my consultancy Scriptome.AI, I have built Pavlov-GPS (pavlov.scriptome.ai), a proprietary AI-powered platform that curates and navigates 200+ AI/ML tools purpose-built for drug discovery and biotech R&D. This is not a generic recommendation engine. It is a living database I maintain and update continuously that helps biotech teams map the right tools to their specific pipeline stage, from target identification through clinical development. What I deliver: AI Strategy & Roadmaps: Custom AI adoption roadmaps aligned with your research goals, operational pain points, and budget. I define where AI adds the most value and build a phased plan to get you there. Tool Selection & Evaluation: Leveraging Pavlov-GPS and deep domain knowledge, I evaluate and recommend the best AI/ML tools for your specific use case, whether that is molecular docking, ADMET prediction, lab automation, data management, or operational efficiency. Implementation & Integration Support: I work alongside your team and vendors to implement AI tools, ensuring smooth integration with your existing tech stack, workflows, and data infrastructure. AI Literacy & Training: I design and deliver workshops and training programs for biotech teams, including courses through MassBioEd. I help your scientists and executives become confident, effective users of AI tools. Market & Competitive Intelligence: Landscape analyses of AI tools and platforms relevant to your therapeutic area or business function, so you know what is available, what is emerging, and where the field is heading. I also host The Scriptome Podcast, covering molecular tooling and computational methods in drug discovery, and I run a biweekly AI x Biotech Working Group for industry professionals. I recently spoke at MIT's Internet of AI Agents Conference on agentic AI applications in life sciences. AI and ML can turn your business into a whole new animal if you know how to leverage the tools for efficiency. The best part is that many business applications have a "compounding impact", where efficiencies unlocked at an initial stage of AI implementation unlock additional, subsequent efficiencies moving forward. Standing up an AI system that allows you to do less manual work, save time and have greater insights into your data will make you feel like you've caught a wave in life. I also hold a dual bachelor's degree in biochemistry and chemical engineering, a Professional Certificate in data science and I am currently pursuing my MBA. If you have a project, reach out and I'll give you an honest idea of whether I think I can help. I love solving difficult problems and analyzing data, and 30-minute consults are free.
