Gabriele Sarti is a postdoctoral research associate in the Khoury College of Computer Sciences at Northeastern University, based in Boston. 

Sarti cares deeply about trustworthy, democratic access to the inner workings of large language models (LLMs) and AI systems. He believes that good interpretability techniques and interfaces have incredible potential to make human–AI interactions more transparent and trustworthy — traits that will only grow more important as AI systems become more tailored to users' needs. It’s particularly important to him that cutting-edge interpretability research be accessible for researchers who might otherwise lack the resources to study LLM behavior, and he thoroughly enjoys mentoring motivated students and early-career researchers interested in the field. 

Sarti joined Khoury College in 2026 to contribute to the Bau Lab’s work on the NSF-funded National Deep Inference Fabric, which aims to use a nationwide research computing fabric to understand why AI models make the predictions that they do. Before joining Khoury College, he contributed to similar work at the Dutch InDeep consortium though the University of Groningen, and he has also held research roles with Amazon Web Services and Aindo. 

In his free time, Sarti loves cooking, traveling, and learning new languages.
