Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolCaitlin Lewis is a software engineer and incoming PhD student in Electrical and Computer Engineering at Duke University, with four years of experience building scientific tools for neuroscience and data visualization. She co-developed fastplotlib, a high-performance plotting library powered by pygfx, and helped create an open-source neuroscience visualization library at the Flatiron Institute while contributing JAX-powered statistical modeling work to NeMoS. As an undergraduate researcher in Dr. Adam Hantman’s lab, she built software for calcium imaging analysis and automated behavioral classification, blending computational rigor with experimental neuroscience. Based in Durham, NC, she brings a rare combination of statistics, systems-level Python engineering, and research-first thinking that accelerates reproducible analysis pipelines.
