Professor Jacek Brodzki, a faculty member at the University of Southampton since at least 2002, holds the title of Professor of Pure Mathematics and serves as Head of the School of Mathematical Sciences . He co-founded and directs the Centre for Geometry, Topology, and Applications (CGTA) , while leading the Southampton node of the £10M EPSRC-sponsored "Mathematical Foundations of Intelligence: An 'Erlangen Programme' for AI . His research spans topological data analysis , noncommutative geometry , and K-theory , with applications in medicine , physics , chemistry , and computer science . His work includes theoretical advancements in CAT(0) cubical spaces and applied projects like "Joining the Dots: From Data to Insight" , which integrates TDA, machine learning, and statistics for multidisciplinary challenges. Supported by grants from the EPSRC , Leverhulme Trust , and Alan Turing Institute , his research has produced groundbreaking applications in metasurface design , asthma biomarker discovery , and neural network analysis . Recent publications highlight his expertise in topological methods for disordered materials (2023), time-series analysis (2022), and stability of Mapper-type algorithms (2020). His theoretical work on the Baum-Connes conjecture and exactness of groups continues to influence geometric group theory. Scientific awards include Fellowship at the Alan Turing Institute (2019) . He actively supervises PhD students and collaborates across disciplines, spanning mathematics , physics , and precision medicine , and participates in the U-BIOPRED consortium for asthma research.
