Martti T. Tammi
a.k.a Dr. Martti.
Martti T. Tammi, Ph.D., is a global leader in bioinformatics and AI-driven innovation, with decades of experience transforming complex biological data into actionable insights that advance healthcare and biotechnology. His career is defined by a commitment to bridging the gap between vast, unstructured datasets and practical solutions that drive breakthroughs in drug discovery, precision medicine, and healthcare systems worldwide.
Dr. Tammi earned his Ph.D. in 2002 at the Faculty of Medicine Uppsala Universitet, followed by postdoctoral research at the Medical Nobel Institute, Karolinska Institutet in Stockholm. Over the years, he has held pivotal roles in bioinformatics research, including at the National University of Singapore, where he led bioinformatics research at the Department of Biological Sciences at Faculty of Science, jointly appointed to the Department of Biochemistry, Faculty of Medicine. He has also contributed to academic and research collaborations in Thailand, South Korea, Malaysia, Sweden, and the Philippines. Notably, he founded and led a bioinformatics division at Sime Darby Plantation Sdn. Bhd. in Malaysia, focusing on innovative applications of data science in biological research.
Driving Innovation with AI and Bioinformatics
In today’s data-driven world, Dr. Tammi combines bioinformatics expertise with cutting-edge AI tools to address critical challenges in drug discovery and healthcare. Inspired by breakthroughs like the 2017 transformer architecture ("Attention Is All You Need"), he applies AI to vast datasets—including genomic sequences, proteomics data, and scientific literature—to uncover hidden connections that accelerate drug discovery, repurpose existing compounds, and identify novel cellular mechanisms.
For example, his work has contributed to the identification of biomarker candidates for precision medicine and optimized drug combinations for complex diseases. By enabling predictive modeling, stratification of clinical trial populations, and prioritization of molecular targets, his approaches reduce R&D costs and streamline clinical trial design, providing significant value to pharmaceutical innovation.
A Vision for the Future of Healthcare
Dr. Tammi’s mission is to transform how data is utilized to solve some of the most pressing challenges in healthcare. His vision is grounded in leveraging AI and bioinformatics to deliver smarter, more personalized, and cost-effective solutions.
The sequencing of the human genome marked the beginning of a data revolution in biology, but the true potential of these datasets is only being unlocked through AI. Dr. Tammi remains at the forefront of this transformation, developing tools and methodologies that connect insights from diverse datasets to actionable outcomes. Through collaborations with pharmaceutical leaders and global innovators, he continues to push the boundaries of bioinformatics, ensuring a future where cutting-edge science translates into real-world impact for patients worldwide.

Dr. Khang Tsung Fei
I am a statistician who enjoys the art of data-driven story-telling. I am currently a senior lecturer at the Institute of Mathematical Sciences in University of Malaya, Malaysia.
Over the years, my interest in biology and medicine has led me to many fruitful collaborations and consultations (and friendship) with biologists and doctors. This is an aspect of my work that I very much enjoy. Working with diverse data types (e.g., sequence, morphological, ecological, clinical data) to produce integrated analyses, I have also come to appreciate the importance of the labor and genius of the data collectors, and that judicious use of statistics is key to meaningful analysis.
Dr. Lloyd Low
I am currently a Bioinformatics Data Scientist at Davies Research Centre, University of Adelaide. Prior to this, I was an Assistant Professor and Head of Products and Services at the Perdana University Centre for Bioinformatics (PU-CBi), which is under the School of Data Sciences. I obtained my Ph.D. in Genetics from the University of Melbourne and did my postdoctoral fellowships at Monash University. Currently, I am also taking a part-time graduate diploma in Biostatistics, which is a course delivered by the Biostatistics Collaboration of Australia (BCA).
My research interests are in the areas of next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology, genome assembly, gene annotation, molecular evolution, and comparative genomics. The species I have worked on include fly, worm, human, primate, bacteria, water buffalo, and cattle. I have authored/co-authored research articles at internationally recognized, peer-reviewed journals, and I have presented my work at numerous international conferences. I am a co-author of two patents to the significant discovery of probiotic bacteria and related genomic analyses. Recently I have also written a practical handbook on NGS. I also have experience in creating e-Learning educational contents in Biology, teaching bioinformatics, biostatistics, and genetics to undergraduate/postgraduate students. I have taught and helped to facilitate numerous workshops on NGS and biostatistics.
