Bioinformatician and data manager at the Max Planck Institute for Immunobiology and Epigenetics in Freiburg.

My background is human neurogenetics and ion channel biophysics...with a fair bit of programming as needed.

I'm one of the administrators on biostars and a moderator on the bioinformatics stackexchange.

I'm the developer of MethylDackel and pyBigWig, among others. I'm also one of the developers behind deepTools.
