John Michael Jumper (born 1985)[1] is an American chemist and computer scientist. He currently serves as director at Google DeepMind.[2][3][4] Jumper and his colleagues created AlphaFold,[5] an artificial intelligence (AI) model to predict protein structures from their amino acid sequence with high accuracy.[6] Jumper stated that the AlphaFold team plans to release 100 million protein structures.[7]
The scientific journal Nature included Jumper as one of the ten "people who mattered" in science in their annual listing of Nature's 10 in 2021.[6][8] Jumper and Demis Hassabis were awarded with the 2024 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for protein structure prediction.[9][10]
