Cofounder, Association for Mathematical Consciousness Science. Former associate professor, Pompeu Fabra University. Authored over 100 academic publications.

Received a B.A in computer science from Vassar College, Pursuing a Masters degree in information systems from NYU. Researching minimal computational models for biology and other complex systems.

Pedro is a biologist interested in the theoretical foundations of biology, particularly the origins and persistence of self-organization, evolution, and complexity. Before joining the Wolfram Institute, he was an Omidyar Fellow at the Santa Fe Institute, where he conducted research in theoretical biology as well as in the historical and computational linguistics of Purépecha, his native language and culture.

Pavel is a mathematician with a background in theoretical physics, originally drawn to Hamiltonian systems, symmetries, and quantization. His PhD and postdoctoral work bridged Chern\[Dash]Simons theory, string topology, and symplectic geometry. He later worked as a full-stack software engineer on large-scale distributed systems and now merges his passion for science, programming, and the Wolfram Language at the Wolfram Institute.

Researcher and developer. Quantum computation, machine learning and Wolfram Language enthusiast.

Brian is a programmer with experience in building applications using Python, Rust and JavaScript. He studied computer science in his undergraduate. He's interested in many things both in academic and non academic. Some of the fields he likes studying and reading about includes cryptography, number theory, game theory, cognitive and computational neuroscience.

Dugan Hammock is a mathematician and computational geometer specializing in hypershapes, aperiodic tilings, and quasicrystals. He creates geometric visualizations and art, and has experience as a researcher, tutor, and mentor.

Richard studied artificial intelligence at the University of Edinburgh and has research engineering experience in both medical neuroscience and machine learning, as well as experience working in the games industry. His interests range from graph rewriting and compiler and programming language design to GPU and graphics programming.

Luke holds a B.S. in Astronomy & Physics from the University of Toronto and a B.A. in Jazz Saxophone Improvisation from Humber College. He's passionate about computer science and physics, and enjoys playing live music in his free time.
