D. Andrew Carr

Andrew Carr is a Data Scientist with expertise in algorithms, machine learning, and database design, and is responsible for advancing Mantra Bio’s targeted exosome technologies. In a previous position as Director of Bioinformatics at Accelerated Technology Laboratories Andrew developed high throughput GPGPU accelerated algorithms for parsing bioinformatics data to provide faster sequence comparison across multiple genomic targets. As adjunct faculty at UNCC Andrew explored Covid-19 mRNA molecular structure and propagation through a combination of machine learning and bioinformatics tools, for linkage in potential exogenistic molecular catalysis for genetic predisposed diseases.

Andrew holds a Ph.D. in Bioinformatics from George Mason University and completed postdoctoral work at the University of North Carolina Charlotte where he managed the computational lab for micro-array biophysics research while serving as DataFATE lead and project manager. Andrew also holds Bachelor’s degrees in both Mathematics and Ballet from Indiana University.
