Hey, I'm Slava 👋
I am currently working on my startup SieveStack, which I founded with my dear friends Amber and Ian. We are working on a fully automated process for discovering and developing new medicines. Imagine a virtual factory populated by AI agents working tirelessly around the clock to deliver new medicines to humanity every single day. This is the dream we’re building.
Before SieveStack, I worked as a postdoc and teaching assistant professor at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. During this time, I co-organized the Special Session on Solvable Lattice Models and their Applications and co-led the Physically Inspired Math Seminar.
Prior to UNC Chapel Hill, I was getting PhD in mathematics from Stanford University under guidance of Daniel Bump. My main research interests were in mathematical physics, integrable lattice models, representation theory, and algebraic combinatorics. I defended my thesis Combinatorics of Integrable Lattice Models on May 18, 2023. I’m grateful to Dan Bump and the thesis committee: Persi Diaconis, Sourav Chatterjee, Lance Dixon, and Andy Hardt. During my time at Stanford, I organized the Solvable Lattice Models Seminar. Videos from the seminar are available on YouTube.
