Mario Wieser

Machine Learning/Computer Vision Scientist

I am a Machine Learning/Computer Vision Scientist at Genedata AG. Before, I was a Ph.D. student advised by Prof. Volker Roth and Prof. Thomas Vetter at the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science at the University of Basel, Switzerland. Prior to that, I obtained my M.Sc. degree from Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) in Computer Science with a major in Software Engineering and Machine Learning.

My work is focused on developing robust and reliable machine learning systems that analyze high-content screening assays, primarily based on imaging data, to support world-leading biopharma companys in their early drug discovery process.
