Specialization: Computer Vision
— I have done research in academia in the field of image processing and computer vision. — I have developed on of the fastest open-source PIV packages (quickPIV) and used it to automatically detected migration patterns during the embryonic development of the red flour beetle. — I have also developed segmentation pipelines for biological data, both with traditional image processing techniques as well as with AI by training a maskRCCN model.

Work experience

Research scientist in image processing
03.2021 - 09.2024 |Frankfurt Institute for Advanced studies
3D data, Julia, Python, Pytorch, Paraview, 3D Slicer
● My role was developing software and image processing pipelines for analyzing 3D microscopy data. ● In particular, I specialized in quantifying cell movements in 3D and segmenting movement patterns of tissues. ● For this, I developed one of the fastest open-source PIV packages (quickPIV) in Julia. ● Optimizing PIV required delving to low-level implementation details of the FFT algorithm offered by the C library FFTW, as well as leveraging cuFFT to move computations to the GPU. ● In addition, I implemented a high-throughput automated pipelines for segmenting organoids based on a mask-RCNN model. ● I oversaw a group of students in annotating 3D datasets, and later trained the model, applied it, and analyzed the resulting 3D+t organoid predictions.
