Author: David Kurlander

Ph.D.

David (or D.J.) Kurlander received his Bachelor\'s Degree in Applied Mathematics from Harvard in 1985, and his Ph.D. in Computer Science from Columbia in 1993. At Columbia, his research interests were mainly in user interfaces and computer graphics, and his Ph.D. dissertation was called \"Graphical Editing by Example\". In 1992, David became one of the first members of Microsoft Research. Then in 1996, he followed one of his research projects (Comic Chat) into a product group, where he managed that effort, and developed an affinity for building projects based on advanced technology. Within the Microsoft product groups, David led the Microsoft Mobile Internet Toolkit effort - which allowed single web pages to target hundreds of mobile browsers (this is now integrated into Visual Studio and ASP.NET). Next, he led the consumer incubation team, where he managed the Microsoft Surface effort. At the end of 2005, David left Microsoft to pursue his own numerous interests.
