Richard Shuai

I'm a first year Biophysics PhD student at Stanford studying machine learning applications in protein engineering. Previously, I studied Computer Science and Statistics at UC Berkeley and worked under Professor Nilah Ioannidis to study the effects of noncoding variants on chromatin accessibility using machine learning.

In Professor Jeffrey Gray's lab at Johns Hopkins, I've developed deep learning approaches for designing antibody sequences under the mentorship of PhD student Jeffrey Ruffolo. We aim to generate synthetic antibody libraries that can accelerate the development of therapeutic antibodies.
