Samarth Jajoo is a multidisciplinary engineering leader with 11 years of experience blending software, robotics and protein engineering; he currently heads Special Projects at PopVax, building therapeutics and internal tooling. A UC Berkeley CS and cognitive science student on leave, he moves fluidly between lab bench and code—previous roles include protein-focused research at MIT Biology and microfluidics work at Berkeley’s Streets lab. He’s shipped performance-critical robotics software at Prosper Robotics and prototyped foundational product features during an internship at Replit. An active maker and front-end contributor to Mathigon’s interactive textbooks, he brings a taste for interactive visualization and human-centered interfaces to scientific tooling. Notably, he has hands-on experience using AlphaFold-driven design pipelines to create compact multimer antigen displays and structured web apps that backlink experimental data for company-wide traceability. Samarth is based in Hyderabad but retains a pan-India background and a persistent curiosity about biology, robotics, and the brain.

Contributions summary:Samarth primarily focused on the front-end development of interactive elements for the Mathigon textbooks. They implemented features such as a click-activated spinner and chart construction, enhancing user interaction. The user modified the `disk.ts` component, adding click functionality, and integrated this component into the "basic-probability" module. Furthermore, they added and styled SVG elements, and integrated the spinner with a reset function.
