Biography

At present, I am a research scientist at Huawei Technologies Switzerland. There, I develop algorithms for machine learning and investigate which principles of brain computation and cognition hold a promise to advance artificial intelligence.

Previously, I completed my PhD with Prof. Wolfgang Maass at the Institute of Theoretical Computer Science at TU Graz, Austria, where I studied learning processes and designed models thereof from a neuroscientific perspective.
