Summary
Mathias Perslev is Head of AI Science & Research with 11 years of experience applying machine learning and software development to computational neuroscience and clinical sleep science. He transitioned from academic PhD work on spatiotemporal sleep dynamics and medical time-series segmentation at the University of Copenhagen to research roles at Microsoft and Harvard-affiliated labs, and now leads AI research at Cerebriu. Mathias has built and deployed sleep-focused tools such as the youSleep portal and continued U-Sleep research into production-facing services, bridging rigorous research with applied productization. His background in bioinformatics and biology gives him domain fluency in both data and physiology, and he pairs that with hands-on GPU compute management and grant-writing experience. Known for turning complex sleep and medical datasets into actionable ML solutions, he brings a rare combination of clinical relevance, software pragmatism, and team leadership.
