Biography

My name is Rod Furlan. I am a quant, machine learning expert and Singularity University teaching fellow.

I want to build wondrous things that inspire and drive change. I am a serial autodidact and I love complicated problems. Challenge is what makes me tick.

Every day I am humbled by the elegant complexity of the universe we live in. The pursuit of truth and knowledge defines who I am.

Singularity University: 2009

A number of exponentially growing technologies will massively increase human capability and fundamentally reshape our future. This warrants the creation of an academic institution whose students and faculty will study these technologies, with an emphasis on the interactions between different technologies. Our mission is to assemble, educate and inspire a cadre of leaders who strive to understand and facilitate the development of exponentially advancing technologies to address humanity’s challenges. With the support of a broad range of specialists in academia, business and government, Singularity University creates a global network of like-minded entrepreneurs, technologists and young leaders to participate in crafting a road map to guide the evolution of these disruptive technologies. SU helps create solutions and applications of these technologies for the benefit of humanity through its Graduate Studies and Executive Programs. SU is based at the NASA Ames campus in the heart of Silicon Valley.
