Senior🎓
Top SchoolFlorian Weidner is a Lecturer in Glasgow with nine years of research and engineering experience at the intersection of AR/VR, HCI, smart spaces and biomedical engineering. He holds a summa cum laude PhD in Computer Science and has progressed from hands-on mechatronics and clinical sensor research to postdoctoral and senior research roles across German and UK universities. Florian brings a blend of software engineering and systems-level thinking—building APIs, graphical editors, thermal imaging algorithms and fault-tolerant stream processing during his earlier roles. He is comfortable translating complex research into practical systems and teaching, with a track record of supervising students and shipping research prototypes. An under-the-radar strength is his industrial grounding in mechatronics and manufacturing, which informs pragmatic solutions in human-centered computing.
