Chris’s mission is to leverage his unique combination of computer science and neuroscience expertise to massively increase medical care quality. A son of two physicians, Chris learned from his parents that medical records took time away from patients and provided immense amounts of information but not the insights they had expected. During his studies Chris realized that by combining medicine and computer science raw data could be transformed into a highly effective and efficient way to positively impact lives and healthcare on a massive scale. Chris has been the recipient of numerous awards and honors, including the NYU Presidential Service Award, 1st Place at the Innovation Competition in 2012 and the Harold Hertzberg Commencement Award. Chris was also honored to be a speaker at TEDxNYU 2012. He holds a B.A. in Neuroscience and Cell Biology, with a Minor in Cognitive Science from Rutgers University, and completed his M.S. in Computer Science from Polytechnic Institute of NYU. Chris is fluent in English, French and Italian.
