šŸ‘‹ I’m Markus Strasser. I work on developing multi-target drugs. In my free time I make art and read about the physics of biological information processing

Previously I worked on biomedical literature search and knowledge discovery (with funding from Emergent Ventures), machine learning interpretability, no-code tools, browser extensions and bioinformatic automation at Oxford Nanopore. Before my engineering escapades I studied philosophy, some mathematics and later fine art with stints in Viennese and Prague Ateliers, the Barcelona Academy of Arts and Stanford.
