Hi, I'm Brice

I'm a Ph.D. student in Jeff Skolnick's lab, the Center for the Study of Systems Biology at Georgia Tech.

My research focuses on cognition - intelligence, emotion, addiction, and mental illness.

My goal is that, one day, we will better understand ourselves and what's going on here.

Selected Projects:

• Valsci
  • Open-source automated scientific literature review tool.
  • Created for the CSSB to facilitate validation of predictions generated by bioinformatics models.
  • Check out the accompanying publication in BMC Bioinformatics.
• I Said, You Heard - Assessment
  • An iOS app created for Kind Words Are Cool, LLC.
  • A virtual communication coach and central hub of content for the I Said This, You Heard That books.
• I Said, You Heard - Assessment
  • An online temperament assessment created for Kind Words Are Cool, LLC.
  • Built as a companion tool for the I Said This, You Heard That books.
• Remi Journal (sadly now deprecated)
  • Your personal AI biographer and companion.
  • Hundreds of users and 4.8 stars on the App Store.
  • A production-ready, scalable iOS app built with Flutter, Firebase, Google Cloud Platform, and various AI models.
• CUDAGlycolysis
  • A GPU-powered simulation of glycolysis at the nanometer and microsecond scale.
  • Up to 100,000,000 molecules successfully simulated on an NVIDIA RTX 3070.
• What That Langs (sadly now deprecated)
  • A C++ loopback utility that can transcribe and translate any audio playing on your Windows machine.
  • (Not currently maintained, but let me know if you want to use it and I can boot the server for you)
