Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolNicolas Cottaris is a computational vision scientist and senior scientific application developer with 12+ years translating models of the front end of human vision into research-grade software at the University of Pennsylvania. His background blends a Ph.D. in Vision Science with MS training in biomedical engineering and a BS in computer science, enabling rigorous neurophysiology experiments and computational modeling from photons to behavior. Previously at Wayne State and UC Berkeley he combined retinal prosthetic evaluation, cortical decoding, and receptive-field mapping to bridge animal/neural data and perceptual outcomes. He builds scientific applications that operationalize complex vision models for experimental and translational use, and is equally comfortable writing simulation code and analyzing population neural responses. Based in Radnor Township, PA, he brings deep domain expertise in visual neurophysiology coupled with practical engineering to accelerate prosthetic and display vision research.
