Teaching and training
I have built up a considerable portfolio of short training courses on biostatistics and scientific programming at the Vienna Biocenter.
In addition I teach computational biology at the University of Vienna.
Science
I hold an M.Sc. in Chemistry and
a Ph.D. in biochemistry, and have extensive experience in computational biology and chemistry
both in academic and industrial (pharmaceutical research) environments. I have
modelled information processing in enzyme reaction networks,
used distance geometry for protein structure prediction, built up computational
biology and chemistry groups at Novartis, worked as a bioinformatician and
a scientific software developer.

Software
I develop scientific software mostly in Python, R and C++. I am also
proficient in C and SQL. My memories of
Java, Fortran and Ruby have mostly faded.
