New Atlantis
Chief Architect at New Atlantis Labs — decentralized marine science, ocean biodiversity regeneration, and precision medicine for the oceans.
New Atlantis Labs was an enterprise marine data science research institution — precision medicine for the oceans. It used decentralized science mechanisms to fund and govern ocean conservation: biodiversity credits, DAO governance for research funding decisions, and a pipeline from ocean biodiversity data through protein language models to drug discovery.
As Chief Architect, I was responsible for the technical architecture of New Atlantis’s data science infrastructure — marine bioinformatics, eDNA analysis, decentralized governance, and scientific foundation models for marine biology. The work sat at the intersection of everything I’d been building toward: the computational rigor from Google, the DeSci governance experience from LabDAO, and the growing conviction that open science infrastructure could serve the planet, not just the lab.
New Atlantis was part of a progression. The marine science thread runs from LabDAO through New Atlantis, through the IMAC project, and into the World Genome Academy — each iteration deepening the commitment to ocean AI and citizen science. The ocean eDNA biomonitoring work connects directly to the UCSD marine science partnership and the Venice High ocean genomics curriculum.
Precision medicine for the oceans. That framing still holds.
