About

Martin Tsui is an accomplished scientist with a strong background in biochemistry. He received his Ph.D. in Molecular Biophysics from Florida State University in 2017, where he conducted research on the structure and function of CRISPR proteins. Prior to that, he obtained his B.S. in Chemistry from the University of California, San Diego in 2012. After completing his graduate studies, Martin founded his own company, Stealth, where he serves as a Founder & CEO. Under his leadership, the company has developed innovative solutions for the biotech industry and has gained recognition for its groundbreaking research. Before starting his company, Martin worked as a Senior Scientist at Amazon, where he applied his expertise in protein biochemistry and CRISPR to improve the company's product development processes and creating new products. He also gained valuable experience as a Postdoctoral Scholar at the University of California, San Francisco and Postdoctoral Fellow at the Van Andel Institute, where he studied cancer proteins, SARS-CoV-2, HIV proteins, and the role of proteins in neurodegenerative diseases, respectively. Martin is a highly driven and passionate individual who is dedicated to advancing the field of biotechnology. His impressive education and diverse experience have equipped him with the skills and knowledge to make significant contributions to the scientific community. He continues to pursue new opportunities to further his research and make a positive impact in the world of science.
