Whether you're just beginning to perform research or polishing your final draft, I'm confident in my ability to meaningfully contribute to your success. My own research has been published in peer-reviewed journals and I have experience assisting countless academics in getting their work to press. Effective scientific communication can be hard to get perfect, but together we'll make sure your research has the greatest impact possible.
Personally, I am an anthropologist with significant qualitative research experience in both academia and industry. While the social sciences will always hold a soft spot in my heart, I also have plenty of experience working with clients from a wide range of disciplines, including medicine, business, and the lab sciences. In my experience, "non-experts" often catch writing issues that those within a discipline can overlook. The best way to improve readability, clarity, and the strength of an argument is to have a fresh set of eyes take a look.
Not an academic? No worries! I'm also happy to lend a helping hand to other forms of writing, from college essays to website content. While my own interests may leave me stuck in an ivory tower forever, the writing and research skills I've developed along the way are applicable to endless fields and topics. I have a particularly strong background in editing application essays, ranging from prospective university students to medical school applicants.

I help researchers, biotech companies, and scientific organizations build AI-powered research workflows, analyze complex biological datasets, develop scientific software and transform experimental data into actionable insights. I am a PhD-trained Computational Biologist and Data Scientist with over 14 years of experience in biological research and scientific data analysis. I am also a cofounder of DataLens.Tools, where we design AI-powered knowledge systems, research automation tools, scientific data analysis platforms, retrieval-augmented applications and custom AI workflows for research and industry. I specialize in computational biology, bioinformatics, machine learning, scientific Python development and AI-powered research workflows. I help researchers, biotech teams and scientific organizations transform complex biological data into actionable insights through data analysis, computational modeling and custom software solutions.
Alongside my research and computational work, I have experience teaching and mentoring students and researchers in biological data analysis, Python, statistics, machine learning and computational research methods. I particularly enjoy helping researchers understand not only how to use computational tools, but also why a particular analytical or machine-learning approach is appropriate for their scientific question.
My expertise spans computational biology, bioinformatics, machine learning, scientific image analysis, cheminformatics, protein modeling and data visualization. I also have extensive experience working with fluorescence microscopy, calcium imaging, electrophysiology datasets and high-dimensional biological data.
Key Areas of Expertise
• Computational Biology & Bioinformatics
• Machine Learning & AI for Biological Data
• AI Systems & Knowledge Engineering
- Agentic AI Workflows
- Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG)
- AI Memory & Knowledge Systems
- Scientific AI Applications
- Research Automation
- AI Workflow Architecture
• Scientific Python Development (Pandas, NumPy, Scikit-learn, PyTorch)
• Data Analysis, Statistics & Visualization
• Image Processing & Quantitative Microscopy
• Cheminformatics & Protein Modeling
• Computational Neuroscience & Electrophysiology
• Research Automation & Scientific Software Development
Selected Research & Technical Projects
• Developed reproducible Python pipelines for fluorescence imaging and quantitative biological data analysis.
• Designed machine-learning workflows for biological and physiological datasets.
• Conducted bioinformatics analyses involving genomic and VCF-based datasets.
• Developed AI-assisted approaches for fluorescence microscopy and scientific image analysis.
• Applied statistical modeling to investigate calcium dynamics and muscle physiology in Drosophila flight systems.
• Built scientific software for data visualization, analysis, and workflow automation.
• Developed and taught computational workflows that help researchers understand and independently analyze biological datasets.
• Co-founded DataLens.Tools, where we develop AI-powered tools and workflows for scientific research and data analysis.
I have authored peer-reviewed scientific publications and presented research at international conferences. I enjoy collaborating on interdisciplinary projects at the intersection of biology, AI, data science and scientific computing.
I am particularly interested in projects where researchers need more than a black-box analysis, whether that means developing a reproducible computational workflow, validating a machine-learning approach, building a scientific AI system or helping a research team understand and adopt computational methods.
If you are working with complex biological data or exploring how AI, machine learning or scientific computing could support your research, I would be happy to connect.

As a native German freelance copywriter and translator, I specialize in creating compelling German content as well as precise English-to-German translations.
From technical documents and blog posts to website content, newsletters, press releases, books, and everything in between, I craft and translate with precision, authenticity, and attention to detail.
I also optimize existing texts, provide strategic consulting, and support companies in building and strengthening their German brand voice.
The goal: To capture the heart of your message in German — and to deliver far more than just bare minimum.
My background:
More than 13 years of experience as a german copywriter and editor,
including academic writing, SEO and proofreading. I used to work with plenty of companies from all over the world and wrote about various topics for different target groups.
Almost 8 years experience as a translator english-german. All translations will be done manually (without tools such as google translate or AI) and proofread a couple of times. I always keep an eye on creating natural sounding translations that are absolutely appropriate for the german market - of course without losing the context and spirit of a text.
One-time projects are as welcome as long-term engagements;
Fixed Price contracts preferred!
