Nakul Yadav, PhD — Co-Founder
Stanford and Cornell trained data scientist. Currently, I am a research scientist at Stanford working towards building tools to analyze high dimensional neural data, with extensive expertise in using ML and AI to uncover patterns in time series analysis. Previously, I was a data scientist and consulting associate at Charles Rivers Associates, providing data driven insights into strategy and business development in Life Sciences. In this time, I have contributed towards development of LLM backed RAG products for primary market research, worked with data science across clients such as Eli Lilly and Pfizer, and applied machine learning methods to provide insights into clients needs ranging from opportunity assessment using EHR data and clinical trial analysis to strategy and forecasting of newly developed drugs using Python/SQL/PowerBI. I finished my PhD in Computational and Systems Neuroscience jointly at Cornell University and The Rockefeller University where my thesis utilized advanced statistics and machine learning to understand neural architecture across brain regions, published in highest impact journals (Yadav et al., Nature 2022, Hsiao, Yadav et al., Cell 2020). I completed my Bachelors in Engineering at Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) in India prior to this. My work was recognized by various awards from graduate school, undergraduate school and neuroscience societies across the world.
