Strategic scientific consulting

Strategic Consulting

Better decisions before a single sample is collected.

The most expensive analysis is one you run on data that cannot answer your question. I help you avoid that with strategic input at every stage, from study design through result interpretation and communication.

Experimental Design

Before you submit that animal protocol or book sequencing time, let me review the computational side. How many cells per sample? How many biological replicates? Is your comparison powered to detect the effect size you care about? Getting the design right upfront can save months of work and thousands of dollars in wasted sequencing.

Data Strategy

Know what data to collect, how to structure it, and how to make it usable for machine learning and statistical analysis. I help teams build data collection workflows that do not create analytical headaches six months later.

Grant & Pitch Support

I write the computational methods and data analysis sections of grant applications and pitch decks. I have contributed to funded NIH proposals and understand what reviewers want to see: clear analytical plans, appropriate statistical frameworks, and realistic timelines for computational work.

Pipeline Audits

Your lab has a pipeline that works but nobody fully understands it. Maybe the person who built it graduated. Maybe it breaks every time you update R. I will audit it, document it, fix it, and hand it back in a state your next postdoc can actually maintain.

Result Interpretation

You have results. Now what do they mean? I help you extract real biological insight from your data, distinguish signal from noise, and avoid common interpretation mistakes like overfitting narratives to underpowered comparisons.
