Strategy starts with decision making
We are a data science company with a focus on decision support. We work with life science companies developing products and scaling technology from prototype to manufacturing. At each stage in the R&D pipeline, decisions under uncertainty need to be made and we leverage our expertise in statistics and machine learning to support your decisions.
Delv Bio is committed to developing strategic and analytic tools to support your decision making.

What we do
We work with companies and organizations in the life sciences space. Typical clients include agriculture, pharmaceutical, medical device, assay development and synthetic biology companies. We develop and deploy predictive models and analytic tools to support decision making at all levels of activity.
We are a boutique data science consulting company, with deep expertise in statistics & machine learning and a focus on analytics that support decision making. Delv Bio was founded by Jabus Tyerman, Ph.D. (learn more about him here).
"Jabus was able to materially improve our existing predictive models in record time without overfitting, and helped explain our results to internal and external stakeholders."
Eric Kriegstein, CEO, Respirix
"Jabus provided us with clear analytical results and insight into our bioinformatic analyses. He also was always able to provide analyses quickly when needed, clearly explained in how the analysis was completed, and he shared his expertise on both the analyses themselves and advised us on technical aspects, like data storage.”
Jennifer Steele,
Director of Research and Development, Genetics Research
"His analysis identified questions and trends we did not notice. His insight allowed us to decide our next steps and efficiently design experiments."
Catherine Pujol-Baxley, VP Research, KnipBio
Engagement
Engagement options:
Most engagements are initiated as one-off analyses (Options 1 & 2) or data analytic pipelines/platforms (Options 3 & 4). The line between one-off and pipelines can be fuzzy, and useful one-off projects can mature into data pipelines.
1. Before collecting any data, prospective clients may engage Delv Bio to advise them on Planning and Experimental Design. This work is always useful and proves a good investment in terms of making sure the proposed data collection and analyses will address the questions at hand, and support the anticipated decision-making process. This Design work is priced according to the scope and value of the project.
2. Prospective clients that have data-in-hand may begin their engagement with Delv Bio with a preliminary Data Audit. The Data Audit is a tool I use to review the data in terms of quality and fit-for-purpose (i.e., in light of the decisions being made), and to gather requirements and propose options for the data analysis. The Data Audit is priced at $2500 and takes 1-2 weeks. Learn more about the Data Audit here.
3. Prospective clients that require a de novo data pipeline can engage Delv Bio with a Pipeline Design and Pipeline Development Project. After development, the pipeline is either managed and run by Delv Bio, or transferred to the client (as appropriate). Pipeline Design and Development Projects are individually priced based on the scope and value of the project.
4.Prospective clients that already have a data pipeline they want re-vamped or updated may begin their engagement with Delv Bio with a preliminary Pipeline Audit. Like the Data Audit, the Pipeline Audit is a technical review of the current state of the system & pipeline, to gather requirements and scope the project. For most RnD pipelines, the Pipeline Audit is priced at $7500 and takes 3-5 weeks.
Because Delv Bio is a boutique Data Science consultancy, we're open to other ways to initiate an engagement with us.
At this time, we are prioritizing clients that anticipate investing more than $25k / a in their decision support requirements.
