Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolBo Hu is a PhD candidate and computational neurobiologist with ~10 years of experience combining microscopy, machine learning, and mathematical modeling to decode neuronal networks and sensory processing. He led an interdisciplinary connectomics project at the Friedrich Miescher Institute, applying CNNs and transformer-based segmentation and manifold methods to analyze high-dimensional neural activity. Trained in systems biology and advanced probability/stochastic analysis, he bridges theory and experiment—from building stochastic DNA repair models to simulating ion-channel effects on population coding. Based in Basel, he is ready to lead industry projects that fuse computation and biology to advance public health, bringing both hands-on imaging expertise and a track record of turning complex datasets into mechanistic insight. An underappreciated strength is his ability to move across scales—from single-neuron channel models to whole-brain connectomics—while mentoring and coordinating interdisciplinary teams.
