Gregory Kahn

I am currently the head of machine learning at Remedy Robotics. We are developing the world's first remotely operated endovascular robot in order to bring cutting edge endovascular intervention to everyone around the world, as quickly and as safely as possible. If you are interested in working with leading clinicians and passionate engineers to solve high impact problems, please reach out to me at greg@remedyrobotics.com

Previously, I did my PhD in machine learning and robotics at BAIR at UC Berkeley, where I was advised by Professor Sergey Levine and Professor Pieter Abbeel and funded by the NSF GRFP. I did my bachelors at UC Berkeley, and have previously interned at Skydio.
