Tay Shin, while a graduate student in the Synthetic Neurobiology Group at MIT, developed new methods for visualizing brain circuitry through lipid staining and expansion microscopy imaging. While at UC Berkeley, he pursued various statistical modeling research projects, and after graduation, he spent two years working as a data scientist for South Korean government agencies, where he created an econometrics machine learning model that eventually saved the South Korean government 200 million dollars.
