Joschka Braun

Founder

Published my first paper in the highest-ranked number theory journal at age 17. Continued to pursue math until my M.Sc. from NYU as a Fulbright scholar. Noticed AI has more real world applications than math and started researching applications of deep learning to medical imaging at Covera Health. Built semantic search systems and automatic code generation software at Jina AI. https://joschkabraun.com
