Soheil Fallah

I'm Soheil Fallah. My interest in plants started on my family's citrus orchard, where I grew up around the day-to-day of actually growing things. That led me to a BSc in Horticultural Science and Engineering, and the more I worked with crops the more I cared about the environment they grow in. So I went further: a master's at the University of Tehran in controlled-environment agriculture and greenhouse crop production, where I designed my own spectral-lighting experiments on basil and published the results as first author.

That research kept pointing back to data. In controlled environments the next gains come as much from measurement and modelling as from biology, so I moved to the UK for a second master's in Big Data and Data Science Technology at Northumbria. My dissertation built generative diffusion models that synthesise medical images to train diagnostic systems where real data is scarce. Alongside all of it, building things has been the hobby I can't put down: lately that means designing AI agents and shipping full products for startups, end to end.
