Jack Pond
Hi, I’m Jack. I’m currently an applied math undergraduate at BYU, and I’ll be applying to graduate programs in applied-math-ish domains this cycle. For the summer, I work at Cross Stream Bioanalytics analyzing mechanistic systems biology models using concepts from information geometry. I’m married to the lovely Jane Pond (as pictured) and we’re expecting our first child in a few months. We couldn’t be more excited! I’m also a casual coin collector, a very serious handball player, an avid reader, and an ancient scriptures/language enthusiast.
I like to write about math, language, religion, and whatever I’m reading. I like to build random projects that help me learn something about how math can answer tough questions.
What I’m working on now
- Systems biology and pharmacokinetics at Cross Stream Bioanalytics
- Learning about information geometry and Fisher Information Matrix methods
- Translating the Gospel of Mark from Greek
- Preparing for a baby in September!!
