Lekan Adeyeri I evaluate early-stage scientific and advanced-engineering companies at Cottonwood Technology Fund — semiconductors, advanced materials, energy, industrial tech. The work is technical diligence: deciding when a claim is strong enough to underwrite. Before Cottonwood: • Stanford Center for Advanced Functional Neuroimaging — ultra-low-dose amyloid PET/MRI deep learning (AJNR; ASNR Cornelius G. Dyke Award; ISMRM) • Microsoft New Technologists — SWE + PM on an early GPT-3 / NLU prototype for Microsoft 365 (private-beta era) • Bessemer Venture Partners Fellow • At 17, shipped a voice/NLU clinical-trial interface at ERT (now Clario) for patients who couldn't use touchscreens; presented to the CEO and Boston Mayor's office; still in production Also: Twitter Early Bird (2nd/~1,200), UPS National High Tech Award, Kleiner Perkins Engineering Fellow finalist, Ripple Ventures Fellow. Quietly building on the side around learned physics and when models should refuse to answer. Early. Happy to talk. github.com/lekandigital · hy.ms
