Allan Zapata
I'm Allan Zapata, a 19-year-old data science student at Universidad de Panamá. I'm building toward a specific idea: that the way we educate people will look as obviously wrong to future generations as medicine before germ theory looks to us. FAIR is my primary vehicle for that. In the meantime, I run Nightingale and help with the data infrastructure at Panama's national missing children alert system.
You can find me on X, GitHub, and LinkedIn, or send me an email.
