PhD student at the University of Fribourg 🦖 Computational palaeobiology, deep learning and macroevolution 🦣
Joined November 2019
Really happy to see paper one of my PhD out today in @NatureComms. We develop a deep learning framework for estimating diversity from fossil data 🤿 🦣🐚 .Many thanks to @JoeFlanSan and Daniele Silvestro for the collaboration.
