Summary
John Balint is a senior data scientist specializing in AI, data visualization, and agentic systems with roughly 10 years of industry experience and nearly 15 years of research and teaching across academia, government, and industry. At Battelle he has led multi-disciplinary teams, driven multimillion-dollar proposals, and steered applied research from basic science to product launches in cybersecurity, computer vision, and planning. He holds a Ph.D. in Computer Science and has a track record of translating complex research—spanning serious games for PTSD to mega-city simulation—into practical tools and patentable ML innovations. As a former director of a collegiate data science program, he’s noted for mentoring students, creating curricula, and communicating technical ideas to varied audiences. Less obvious: his background in physics and immersive virtual environments informs a systems-level approach to modeling human and agent behavior in security and visualization applications.
