Aneesh Sathe

I work at the intersection of AI, data science, and biomedical R&D — mostly on systems that help scientists turn messy biological and clinical data into clearer decisions.

Currently VP of AI & Data Science at Qureator; before that I co-founded Qritive, an AI pathology company. I write with the Protocol Institute on World Machines.
