Learn live with real professors

I’m Phillip Compeau. I have taught computer science and computational biology at Carnegie Mellon for over a decade, and Philomath brings you live teaching from me and my colleagues.

What We’re Teaching

  • Algorithms, with Yun William Yu. Eight live sessions, Thursdays at 8pm ET from September 17. Free, and recorded.
  • The Vibe Coding Studio. A live cohort where you build something real with AI. The next one starts September 14, for members.
  • Great Ideas in Computational Biology. My Carnegie Mellon introduction to the field, remade for a global classroom. Fall 2026.
  • Programming for Lovers. A fun, rigorous, science-driven introduction to Python. Free and asynchronous, so you can start today.

Join the list and I will send you a free excerpt of the Programming for Lovers e-book to get you started.
