Dr. Dan Elton at podium

Hello, welcome to my homepage. I am a Staff Scientist at the National Institutes of Health who focuses on how to use data and AI for precision, personalized, preventative healthcare.

On my Substack I write about metascience, scitech progress, AI, and other topics.

I graduated with a Ph.D. in physics in 2016, and my physics training laid the foundation for how I approach understanding AI, biology, and other topics.
