Senior🎓
Top SchoolGunnar Kleemann is a data science educator and practitioner with 11 years of experience applying high-power analytics to large, complex datasets across academia, biotech, and consulting. Based in Austin and Berkeley, he teaches master’s-level data science at UC Berkeley while leading AI research and data science services through the Berkeley Data Science Group and his firm, Capital Data Corp. His toolkit spans Python, R, Matlab, cloud platforms (AWS, SoftLayer), big-data tooling and experimental design, with domain depth in genomics and assay automation from years in laboratory research and bioinformatics. Gunnar has translated hands-on wet-lab expertise into scalable data workflows—wrangling 10s–100s of GB datasets, building ML models for biotech and commercial problems, and developing visualization and automation tools. He blends rigorous academic training (PhD in Molecular Genetics, postdoc in genomics) with practical product and teaching experience, mentoring students and teams across bootcamps and graduate courses. An often-overlooked strength is his ability to bridge protocol-level lab automation with cloud-scale analytics, enabling reproducible, end-to-end scientific data products.
