Björn Mattsson
I studied BSc and MSc in physics with courses in computational biology, worked almost a decade on machine learning for various non-science problems, and am now combining machine learning with physics in the field of computational chemistry. I am particularly interested in how to gain new insights by combining machine learning and physics-based approaches. I believe that rigorous benchmarking is fundamental to make progress, both in individual projects and as a field.
Snapshots from my career
Computational Chemistry consultant
Started Enlace Bio in 2024 to provide computational chemistry services to biotech and pharma companies. Focused on the intersection between machine learning and physics-based approaches.
Worked a decade in Machine Learning
I have spent nearly a decade building ML products. At Tractable I helped build an AI-based computer vision product from early prototype to a globally deployed software platform, resulting in nine co-invented US patents. That experience gave me a practical understanding of what it takes to build ML systems that actually work.
Background in physics
My thesis group’s work in subatomic quantum physics got published (>200 citations): Uncertainty analysis and order-by-order optimization of chiral nuclear interactions.
