Hi, I'm Jeffrey Cohen.
I'm Jeffrey Cohen, a computer science educator and software builder who loves making complex ideas approachable.
At Northwestern University and the University of Chicago, I teach computer science courses designed to spark “Aha!” moments in every session. My philosophy? Learning should be hands-on, relaxed, and fun.
I founded Software for Research to help researchers turn ambitious studies into impactful results. Our platform helps you engage participants dynamically, collect data more effectively, and adapt to the needs of every study.
I'm also an open-source contributor, conference speaker, and active in Chicago's tech community. For me, it's all about solving problems creatively and empowering others to do the same.
Or drop me an email anytime: jeffrey@softwareforresearch.com.
