Dickson Chen

I’m a neuroscientist working alongside clinical scientists and physicians. My contributions to the field of neuroscience include probing the unknown of Huntington’s Disease pathogenesis using electron microscopy, confocal microscopy, and electrophysiological techniques to understand disease etiology, molecular mechanism, and treatment. In my role as a Clinical Research Coordinator II at Seattle Children’s Research Institute, I manage the clinical operations of one of the most vulnerable US populations of pediatric brain tumor patients participating in phase I clinical trials. My interests involve understanding the complexities of neurodegenerative diseases and movement disorders, aging and its contribution to trends in the US population, as well as leveraging ML/AI data-driven insights to improve clinical outcomes for patients. Recently, I co-founded ParaDocs Health, a health-tech company aimed at alleviating primary care providers from the burden of non-clinical tasks through ML/AI applications to deliver instant data-driven feedback to improve clinical decision making and automation of non-clinical tasks.
