― My background

At 12, Shayan Shokri scored 165 on the standard IQ test, which led to his acceptance into the National Organisation for the Development of Exceptional Talents for high school with a full scholarship.

At 19, he began extensive research, and writing papers on satellite measurement precision and artificial intelligence, leading to published papers in Elsevier and Springer, and garnered admiration from NASA directors. After his first research practice in aerospace+AI, he started to focus more on brain sciences and computational neuroscience. Following his internship in computational neuroscience, he published three papers before joining Harvard Medical School.

At Harvard, Shayan focused on researching artificial intelligence (AI) use cases in precision medicine. He joined Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston to lead the development of an AI-powered platform designed to monitor symptoms and accurately cluster patients with neurological diseases.

Right after his studies, to make a lasting impact, he founded Earthian AI, a fast-growing Dutch startup focused on preserving biodiversity on Earth and enabling the sustainable transition for financial institutes both through financing and insurance services for climate-focused initiatives. These initiatives include reforestation, natural catastrophe readiness, ocean health and biodiversity preservation, and coral reef protection.
