Research Associate / Ph.D. Student
I’m a research associate / Ph.D. student since February 2016 and focusing on bringing novel interaction techniques to information visualizations. Currently, I’m working on the research project GEMS 2.0 about Visual Editing and Comparison of Multivariate Graphs Using Multiple Interactive Displays.
