Sriram (Rami) is excited for the future of computation and human health, and is keen to support founders at this nexus. He is particularly interested in AI-native drug discovery platforms, novel therapeutic modalities, and general ML / AI infra.
Before joining the Dimension team, Rami worked as a computational biologist at RAPT Therapeutics, a biotech specializing in oral therapeutics for asthma, eczema, and various cancers. There, he developed algorithms to identify biomarkers for patient stratification, designed pipelines to find synthetic lethal partners for combotherapy, and built data-driven approaches to generate hypotheses for novel targets. Previously, he has also worked on modeling embryonic development with graph neural networks, analyzing fMRI data to predict emotional valence, and designing novel ML algorithms for seizure detection.
Having won the National Spelling Bee, Rami also founded Tangent Global, a software company to help students in the US and China to prepare for spelling bees.
Rami holds his B.S.E in Operations Research and Financial Engineering from Princeton University, where he focused his curriculum on the intersection of computation, biology, and chemistry. His upbringing in upstate New York inspires his interests in hiking, kayaking, and skiing, as well as his unbridled optimism for his Buffalo Bills.
