Logan Nye, MD Medicine ∧ Machine Intelligence

Growing up on a cattle farm meant feeding animals, repairing machinery, and helping neighbors. Farm work and timber-frame construction taught me to work with my hands and stay with a problem.

My mother’s work as a nurse practitioner showed me how practical skill could help people. I decided early that I wanted to become a doctor.

During medical school, I started making and selling hardwood furniture to pay for my pet’s surgery. That became my first business, and I found I enjoyed running it.

A research project required the same measurements on thousands of X-rays. I taught myself machine learning and built a program to automate that work. During medical training, I’d also met patients who lived far from specialist care. I began to see how software could make medical expertise more widely available.

I became interested in using AI to study disease itself, as well as to support medical care. I’m now building a company to turn that research into tools for developing better treatments.

I care about testing ideas carefully, being honest about what the evidence shows, and staying with difficult problems when solving them would help people.
