Hi, I’m Jeff Winchell, a data scientist with a background in mathematics and computer science. I currently work at the New York Stem Cell Foundation (NYSCF) in New York City, where I use machine learning and statistical techniques to help drive discoveries in drug development and stem cell research. With over two years of experience in data science, I’ve worked on everything from image analysis to deep learning tools for biological research.
I graduated from Drexel University in 2021 with dual bachelor’s degrees in Mathematics and Computer Science. During my time there, I worked on several research projects involving machine learning, image processing, and optimization, which sparked my interest in computational biology and data science. Since then, I’ve been passionate about using data to solve complex problems in the life sciences.
When I’m not working on data projects, I enjoy mentoring others, presenting research at conferences, and continuously expanding my knowledge in applied mathematics and machine learning.
