Robert Spang is a multidisciplinary researcher and engineer blending computer science, cognitive psychology, and user-centered design with 11 years of professional experience. After earning a BSc in Computer Science and an MSc in Psychological Science, he completed a PhD-focused research trajectory at TU Berlin investigating machine learning, usability, and biofeedback for cognitive impairment support. He has moved from full-stack web roles and two startup co-founder experiences into academic research positions including a visiting scholar stint at Harvard and a guest researcher role at Fraunhofer HHI. Currently a Juniorprofessor at Bauhaus-Universität Weimar, he focuses on translating lab-grade neuroscience and behavioural prediction methods into practical assistive software. Colleagues know him for combining rigorous experimental methods (e.g., tDCS validity work) with production-grade development skills, making him adept at shipping research-driven applications. He is based in Weimar and brings a rare mix of developer pragmatism and cognitive-science depth to human-centered AI problems.
