ABOUT VARUN B KOTHAMACHU
Bridges deep computational‑biology research and product leadership: Trained as a systems‑biology modeller (PhD and postdoc) and authored peer‑reviewed modelling work, then shifted into biotech product roles where he translates scientific workflows into product and AI solutions for life‑science customers. Hands‑on computational modelling and curation experience: he worked on BioModels curation and patient‑derived metabolic/cancer models while at the Babraham Institute / EMBL‑EBI collaboration, showing strengths in standardising, annotating and disseminating computational models for reuse. Product & platform builder for life sciences: at Digi.Bio and Lifebit, where he combined scientific domain expertise with product management and solutions architect roles to bring lab and computational workflows into customer-ready products, and has published/participated in work on lab automation and modular science architectures. Community builder and DeSci / AMR advocate: active in DIYbio/synbio communities and curates writing on web3, DAOs and DeSci; currently listed as a steward on MicroDAO.bio focused on AMR, reflecting interest in new organisational models for funding and governing biotech innovation.
