Jeremie Kalfon is a computational biologist and engineer with nine years of experience blending AI, genomics, and full-stack software to accelerate translational research and drug target discovery. Currently pursuing a joint PhD at ENS Ulm and Institut Pasteur, he has held senior roles at the Broad Institute and led the computational biology team at WhiteLab Genomics, building an Atlas of cellular biomarkers aggregating 800+ single-cell datasets. A co-founder of PiPle and active open-source contributor (notably improvements to the CaImAn calcium-imaging toolbox), he moves fluidly between production engineering—Nextflow, Terra, GCP, Python/R—and advanced ML for multi-omic integration and conditional VAEs. Known for translating academic research into startup projects and clinical insights, he also mentors biotech entrepreneurship through Nucleate Paris.
