VantAI
Mallika Iyer, Ph.D., currently serves as a Computational Biologist III at VantAI, having joined the company in June 2022 after progressing from roles including Computational Biologist and Computational Biology Intern. Prior to this, Mallika completed a Ph.D. at Sanford Burnham Prebys, where research focused on protein structure, flexibility, and function, resulting in contributions to multiple manuscripts as both first author and co-first author. Additionally, teaching roles at various institutions included responsibilities as a teaching assistant for courses in statistics, cellular communication, general chemistry labs, and tutoring in physics and chemistry. Mallika earned a Master of Science in Integrated Sciences from the University of Colorado Denver and a Bachelor of Science in Zoology and Chemistry from Fergusson College.

VantAI pairs bleeding-edge machine learning techniques with deep systems biology expertise to build computational models that uncover hidden relationships between molecules, targets, and diseases. These models power a best-in-class solution that identifies and generates new molecular entities for targets of interest, repurposes existing molecules at any stage of development, uncovers accurate ADME and toxicological insights, and predicts adverse events likely to influence trial success from deep analysis of systems-based pharmacogenomics. VantAI's in silico platform specializes in modelling complex protein-protein interactions, powering the discovery of biologics and protein degraders in addition to small-molecule drugs. It has helped leading biopharma partners launch new development programs--or revitalize old ones--at a fraction of the time and cost of traditional methods.
