### Welcome, human! I'm Mark 👋

I'm a theoretical physicist by training and entrepreneur & pythonista by choice. I co-founded the Toronto-based biotech startup [ProteinQure](https://proteinqure.com) where we built one of the world's first computational platforms for protein therapeutics (think 3D CAD for molecules) and the [Quantum Open Source Foundation](https://qosf.org). Nowadays, I spent most of my time managing the ML team at [ProteinQure](https://proteinqure.com) whilst also doing all of the interior design for our new company office. On the technical side, I'm working on multi-property optimization algorithms using [deap](https://github.com/DEAP/deap) and Bayesian optimization, designing proteins & peptides with generative AI such as [RFDiffusion](https://github.com/RosettaCommons/RFdiffusion) and [ColabDesign](https://github.com/sokrypton/ColabDesign) as well as spending a lot of time building proprietary ML models for peptide drug delivery & discovery together with my team at ProteinQure. My MSc was about "Learning Curves of Quantum Kernel Machines" which made extensive use of quantum-classical hybrid networks built with [PennyLane](https://github.com/PennyLaneAI/pennylane) and [TensorFlow Quantum](https://github.com/tensorflow/quantum).

Quick facts:

- 💬 Ask me about **Machine learning for drug discovery & protein engineering, Python, quantum computing, open source software, 3D printing and my many hobbies**

- 📫 Talk to me **on the [QOSF Slack channel](https://qosf.org/join)**

- ⚡ Fun fact: **I like climbing frozen waterfalls in the middle of winter.**

Snapshot:

- 💻 My current favourite open source project is **[Polaris - Benchmarks for AI models in drug discovery](https://github.com/polaris-hub/polaris)**

- 🌱 I’m currently learning: **peptide diffusion models**, **Vietnamese**, **trad climbing**

- 👯 I’m looking to collaborate on **Quantum Open Source Software** and **Protein Drug Discovery**

- 🤔 I’m looking for help with some **QOSF projects revolving around quantum software**

- ⌨️ My work setup consists of: [**Moonlander MK 1 split keyboard**](https://www.zsa.io/moonlander/) & [**Kensington SlimBlade Trackball**](https://www.kensington.com/en-ca/p/products/control/trackballs/slimblade-trackball/)

- 🖨️ I’m currently 3D printing **parts for my camper van**

- 🎮 I’m currently playing **Duolingo & Brilliant**

- 🚐 I’m currently **climbing a lot of rock** and **hanging out with my pet snakes**
