Welcome to Musings by Chris Hayduk

Welcome to my blog! I aim here to distill the reading and learning I’m doing on biology, AI, and more. I frequently jump between topics in my reading, so you may see articles spread across a range of topics. But generally, things will focus on AI and biology.

About Me

In my day job, I am a Forward Deployed Engineer on the Life Sciences team at OpenAI, where I work with pharma and biotech organizations to deploy frontier AI systems against problems in drug discovery, clinical development, and the broader life sciences stack.

Previously, I was a Machine Learning Engineer at Meta, working on applied AI & machine learning research for our ads ranking models — leveraging graph data, graph neural networks, and large language models to improve prediction quality across the entire ads ranking stack.

Before that, I served as the Lead Machine Learning Engineer for Drug Discovery at Deloitte, where I built biomedical knowledge graphs, trained and finetuned drug discovery AI models, and developed workflows for in-silico drug optimization.

My academic background includes:

  • A Bachelor of Science in Computer Science & Mathematics from Fordham University

  • A Master of Science in Applied Statistics from the Fordham Gabelli School of Business

  • A Master of Science in Mathematics from The City College of New York

  • [In progress] A Master of Science in Computer Science with a specialization in Artificial Intelligence at the Georgia Institute of Technology
