The team behind the science

A multidisciplinary team committed to making immune data more precise, interpretable, and impactful.

Cedric David Koolen

Cofounder and CEO
Having ran a successful sales agency out of grad school closing 6-figure deals, Cedric was ready for the big league. He lived in 5 countries, studied at 7 universities, and holds degrees from 4 including a BS in Pharma, a Double MS in Physics and Chemistry and a PhD in Chemical Engineering from EPFL. He became principal investigator at the latter in 2024. SCIDENTIFY was founded a year later as a spin-off from EPFL.

Sven R.J. Koolen

Cofounder
Sven has been working for Fortune 500 companies straight out of Uni. Always in product-to-market teams. Notable products he helped launch: mine collapse predictions for Anglo American, ice build up predictions in jet turbines for General Electric. He holds a BS and MS in Mechanical Engineering, the later from TU Delft.

Jack K. Pedersen

Head of Data Science
Jack builds regressors from scratch. He doesn’t touch the off the shelf stuff. He holds a BS, MS and PhD from the University of Copenhagen in Computational Chemistry. As early as 2013, he was applying artificial intelligence to solve hard science problems. His publications have been cited 2000 times. Jack speaks Cantonese. Jack and Cedric co-authored two Nature Research Journal publications

We use SCIDENTIFY tech to develop internal standards for our state-of-the-art optical process. Their ability to access information in the ion cloud is unprecedented.
