Dr Samvida S. Venkatesh

Schmidt AI in Science Postdoctoral Fellow

About Me

I completed a DPhil in Genomic Medicine and Statistics at the University of Oxford in 2024, where I applied statistical genetics to study metabolic and endocrine diseases in large-scale population biobanks such as UK Biobank. Prior to coming to Oxford, I did an undergraduate degree in Molecular Biology (with a minor in Computer Science) at Princeton University, USA.

Research Interests

I currently work on triangulating statistical and machine learning methods to interpret the effects of non-coding genetic variation on both molecular and systemic human phenotypes.
