Fiona Wang

Fiona Wang is a graduate student in biological engineering building decentralized artificial intelligence systems for biomolecular discovery and design. Traditional approaches rely on single monolithic prediction models, which are inflexible and hard to improve incrementally. Instead, she builds multi-agent systems where specialized agents coordinate through local interactions and shared memory to efficiently explore protein sequence space while satisfying coupled constraints around structure, function, and biological compatibility. Fiona created ProteinSwarm, enabling residue-level agents to coordinate mutations through distributed decision-making, and ScienceClaw×Infinite, integrating 300+ computational tools with provenance-tracked coordination for autonomous scientific investigation. As a second-year MathWorks Fellow, she will strengthen connections between machine learning pipelines, numerical analysis, and visualization. Fiona hopes to advance protein engineering and scientific discovery by showing how specialized AI agents can collaborate on complex research problems.
