Beschreibung

Data analyst with a PhD in biology. I mostly do statistical analysis in R and Python: cleaning datasets, running models, and making figures for papers and reports.

I worked for several years at the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology, where I used R (including the "geomorph" and "Morpho" packages for shape analysis) and Python to analyze and process high-dimensional data. This includes CT scans, where I can perform augmentations and image-analysis. Currently expanding my skill-set to include MRI scans, where I aim to perform deep-learning based automatic segmentation.

Things I can do: statistical analysis and modeling, data cleaning, reproducible analysis pipelines, data visualization, and help interpreting or writing up results. If you're not sure whether your project fits, send me a message and I'll tell you.

PhD in biology focused on studying the biological shape variation in primates using geometric morphometrics.
Worked with high-dimensional, and medical imaging data, mostly in R.
Processed 3D data from CT scans, including landmark placement and segmentation in Amira and Avizo
Ran multivariate statistics (PCA, regression, and related methods) and produced publication-quality figures
Wrote and published research in peer-reviewed journals
Wrote reproducible code so analyses could be rerun and checked later
Took datasets from raw data through to interpretable, written-up results
