Senior🎓
Top SchoolFleur Zeldenrust is an associate professor in computational neuroscience at the Donders Institute with nine years of academic experience building theoretical models that bridge physics and neurobiology. She leads the Natural Computing and Neurotechnology theme and develops sensorimotor computation models that probe how perception and motor control shape behaviour. A committed educator and science communicator, she founded BrainHelpDesk and co-created outreach initiatives for children and schools, reflecting a long-standing commitment to informal science education. Fleur also serves as an academic editor for PLOS Computational Biology and plays active roles in shaping neuroscience training and policy through The Young Academy, NeurotechEU, and the Organization for Computational Neurosciences. Her background in physics plus a PhD in computational neuroscience gives her a rare quantitative perspective on biological computation, often applied to practical tools and public-facing science projects.
