Staff AI Scientist at Noetik

Yubin Xie, PhD

Building AI to
understand cancer.

I work at the intersection of AI and oncology, using sequencing and imaging data to understand cancer and build models of cellular biology.

Research

Understanding cancer through data.

My work connects machine learning with the complexity of living systems.

At Noetik, my research interests include virtual cell foundation models and AI for oncology. During my PhD in the Tri-Institutional Program in Computational Biology and Medicine, I studied cancer progression and metastasis using high-dimensional sequencing and imaging data.

AI for cellular biology
Learning representations of cells and their environments from biological data.
Cancer progression & metastasis
Understanding how tumors evolve, spread, and interact with the immune system.
Single-cell & spatial data
Connecting molecular measurements with tissue context through machine learning.
