I’m Ayaan — a student researcher in biochemistry and computer science, passionate about using science and technology to help society.

I most recently worked at Northeastern University, focusing on innovations in biomaterials and biochemistry.

Before that, I worked with Dartmouth’s Geisel School of Medicine on cutting-edge machine learning applications in pathology. I led a DNA methylation project that achieved 99.49% accuracy and collaborated across multiple teams to solve complex research and engineering problems.

Before that, I was at Harvard Medical School, working at the Silveri Lab on the effects of outside stimulants on brain development and growth.

Have a project in mind?

If you want to chat about a project — email me on ayaan.shaikh@tufts.edu.

Currently based in Boston.
