Summary
Gabe Nespoli is a Senior Data Scientist with a decade of experience applying neuroscience-driven signal processing to real-world big data problems, currently at Sonova Group. Trained as a neuroscientist (PhD) who researched how the brain tracks musical beat via EEG, he builds scalable tools for wrangling, analyzing, and visualizing messy multi-channel biological and audio data. His background blends rigorous academic methods—novel neural entrainment analyses and open-source toolkits like PHZLAB and the Neural Entrainment Toolbox—with production data science and UX-minded automation. Gabe pairs a practical interest in machine learning and neural networks with hands-on skills in data engineering and [n]vim, and outside work he channels that curiosity into community science communication and music projects. Notably, his cross-disciplinary experience includes building sensory-substitution prototypes (the Emoti-Chair) and presenting his research to public audiences.
