Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJohan Hidding is a research engineer with 13 years of experience working at the intersection of astrophysics, mathematics, and computational geometry to model Cosmic structure formation. Based at the Netherlands eScience Center and pursuing PhD research at Rijksuniversiteit Groningen, he develops novel computational methods to reveal the dynamics and intuition behind the Cosmic Web. His work blends rigorous astronomical training (MSc Astronomy) with practical algorithmic implementation, turning theoretical insight into reusable research software. Colleagues describe him as someone who brings mathematical clarity to complex physical problems, often illuminating structure through geometric perspectives not obvious from standard simulations. Based in Rhenen, he pairs long-term academic inquiry with applied engineering to push both understanding and tooling for cosmic-structure studies.
