Hi, I'm James Roney.

I'm a computational biology PhD student at MIT, where I am lucky to be supported by the Hertz Fellowship. From 2022-2024 I was a research engineer at DE Shaw Research in New York, and before that I completed my undergraduate studies at Harvard. I'm broadly interested in applying computational methods to problems involving biological structure. My specific areas of interest include the use of machine learning to help with protein structure modeling, protein design, structure-based drug design, and molecular simulation.
