😊 About Me

I'm a Data Scientist & Science Communicator with a Dr. rer. nat. focused on Cardiovascular Immunology. I currently work at Galaxy Europe, part of the Department of Computer Science at the Faculty of Engineering, University of Freiburg, where I develop open and reproducible data analysis workflows for biomedical research and contribute to Galaxy tutorials and tools. My work sits at the intersection of biomedical data science, health research, and open science: from single-cell omics and bioimage analysis to clinical data and translational medicine. I want to deliver data-driven solutions that lead to real impact on people's health. 🔬

Some of the things that I do include:

  • Developing and documenting bioimage and single-cell analysis tutorials and workflows
  • Being an active member of Image Analysis in Galaxy and SPOC communities
  • Authoring of imaging & single-cell tutorials in the Galaxy Training Network
  • Scientific Editor, GTN Single Cell topic
  • Instructor & organizer at Galaxy Training Academy 2025 & 2026

I have been a postdoc since August 2024 at the Chair for Bioinformatics, University of Freiburg. My credentials include a Dr. rer. nat. (PhD) in cardiovascular immunology, focused on translational medicine and interventional preclinical cardiological research; an MSc in Medicine with a focus on clinical research in solid organ transplantation and infectious diseases; and undergraduate studies in biological sciences, psychology, and human medicine.
