Eduardo Beltrame

Prior to joining MBZUAI, Professor Beltrame was bioinformatics lead at ImYoo, a biotechnology startup spun out of Caltech research that executes decentralized immune studies using single cell omics. Before ImYoo, Professor Beltrame was founding scientist at Retro Biosciences, a biotechnology startup developing ageing-related therapeutics. Professor Beltrame holds a Ph.D. in bioengineering from Caltech, where his primary research focus was on the development of experimental and computational methods and tools for single cell RNA sequencing and their application to answering biological questions. He is also a visiting scholar at UC Berkeley School of Education, working on a research partnership with innovative STEM education programs in Brazil.
