Current position

I am currently a scientific staff member and lecturer at ETH Zurich. My main responsibilities are to solve microscopic and high-content analysis problems and provide with scientific solutions. I am supervising and co-supervising Masters, Ph.D., and PostDoc researchers in the fields of image analysis, statistics, and machine learning. I am also responsible to give regular lectures and courses in computational biology, MatLab, and in diverse image analysis topics.
