Philipp Ehmele is a radiology resident and computer science bachelor’s student in Tübingen who combines clinical expertise with eight years of software and research experience. He develops open-source tools for medical data analysis—co-authoring ehrapy for exploratory EHR workflows and contributing backend modules to the widely used MultiQC bioinformatics reporter. At Helmholtz Zentrum München and HPI he applies Python/R to large biomedical datasets, from HIV integration analyses to EHR quality control, while clinically focusing on MSK arthrography at Bundeswehrkrankenhaus Ulm. Self-taught as a software developer, he maintains projects like cookietemple and collaborates across themlab and mlf-core ecosystems. This cross-disciplinary profile enables him to bridge clinical questions and reproducible computational pipelines, often surfacing practical data-quality insights that aren’t obvious from raw records.
