Zuse Institute Berlin
Scientific Researcher
March 2018 — March 2026- Designed and developed FishExplorer, an open-source, multi-species and multimodal cellular atlas platform designed to support integrative and comparative analysis specifically of larval zebrafish and medaka brains.
- Worked closely with a team of neurobiologists to ensure that the platform’s methodological design directly addressed their scientific questions.
- Implemented a platform using open source libraries such as BabylonJs, MeteorJs, D3Js etc to visualize multiscale circuit models at different spatial scales using abstract representation of neurons and morphologies.

About Me
Hi, I am a research engineer at the Leibnitz Institute for Neurobiology, Magdeburg. I also offer consulting services focusing on developing a scalable, interactive platform for the analysis of large-scale neurobiological imaging data, specifically for neural circuit reconstruction and connectomics. My core expertise lies in unifying structural, functional, and anatomical datasets within a common spatial reference framework and making these complex data accessible to the broader scientific community using modern analysis and visualization techniques.
