Orly Alter is a USTAR associate professor of bioengineering and human genetics at the Scientific Computing and Imaging Institute and the Huntsman Cancer Institute at the University of Utah, a scientific advisory board member of the American Institute of Physics APL Quantum and the NCI-DOE Cancer Moonshot collaboration on predictive oncology, the principal investigator of the American Institute of Mathematics Quantum Research Community, and the CSO and a co-founder of Prism AI Therapeutics. Her NCI Physical Sciences in Oncology project partially supported her developing quantum mechanics-based multitensor AI/ML and solving the 75-year-old problem of correctly predicting glioblastoma patients’ survival, gene targets, and drug responses from their genomes. As a genetics postdoctoral fellow at Stanford University, she invented the “eigengene” in a top-50 most cited PNAS paper of all time. Her Ph.D. dissertation in applied physics, also at Stanford, was published by Wiley and is recognized as crucial to quantum computing.
