RESEARCH / METHODS & EVIDENCE

Questions into methods.
Methods into evidence.

My research spans peptide and molecular learning, clinical modeling, bioinformatics and the mechanisms of machine intelligence. Every study opens with its question, method, evidence and limits.

PepLand: a large-scale pre-trained peptide representation model for a comprehensive landscape of both canonical and non-canonical amino acids

Multi-view heterogeneous graphs for peptide representations across natural and non-natural amino acids.

Noncanonical affinity PCC reaches 0.873 after two-stage training. Canonical CPP AUC is 0.838 versus ESM 0.885. These are 2023 manuscript values, not the 2025 journal tables.
