David Furman
Director of the Buck Artificial Intelligence Platform & Stanford 1000 Immunomes Project
David is the Director of the Stanford 1000 Immunomes Project, Associate Professor at the Buck Institute for Research on Aging, and co-founder at Edifice Health. He received his PhD in Human Biochemistry from the University of Buenos Aires, Argentina, in 2008. His research is focused on better understanding the aging of the immune system. Using the Influenza, A model, David’s research is focused in elucidating the cellular and molecular mechanisms of human immune-senescence to define immunological ‘metrics’ of human health. During his Postdoc, he conducted cutting-edge research in Data Science and Systems Immunology to answer scientific questions with strong potential for translational medicine, including the effect of immunity in aging and age-related disease. Advances in these areas will provide for improved diagnostic monitoring and therapeutic interventions that will significantly improve the health and lives of many people.
