Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolJonathan Bloom is a senior lecturer and mathematician with 11 years of interdisciplinary experience at the intersection of topology, machine learning, and computational biology. He has led ML teams and platforms at Cellarity and co-founded Hail and the Models, Inference & Algorithms (MIA) initiative at the Broad Institute, driving open benchmarks and NeurIPS competitions for multimodal single-cell data. At MIT he designs courses that blend visual, computational, and real-world problem solving while supervising undergraduate research and proving theorems in Floer and knot homology. Jonathan bridges deep theory and production practice—publishing work on the topology of regularized autoencoders and scaling genomics tooling—while also building community (Boston Bits in Bio, Flagship Neural Network). He holds a PhD in mathematics, has taught globally as a traveling fellow, and quietly pairs high-diopter curiosity with a knack for turning abstract math into usable data-science education and biotech tooling.
