Hi, I'm
Jiakai Zhang
Assistant Researcher · Co-founder @ Cellverse
I'm an Assistant Researcher at the VRVC Lab, ShanghaiTech University, where I also received my Ph.D. under Prof. Jingyi Yu. My research focuses on AI for structural biology — making Cryo-EM reconstruction faster, more accurate, and accessible through foundation models.
I co-founded Cellverse (寰渺科技) to build AI tools for structural biology and drug discovery. At Cellverse, I'm building Ariadne, an AI agent that guides cryo-EM workflows from raw data to interpretable structures. Previously, I worked at Meta Reality Labs on neural rendering and AR/VR.
