About me
This is the personal homepage of Ueli Rutishauser. Here are some pics of me:
Education:
I received my PhD in Computation and Neural Systems from the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, CA, USA (2008).
My undergraduate degree (BS) is in computer science (focus: software engineering) from the University of Applied Sciences in Rapperswil, Switzerland. I did my undergrad thesis at the Institute of Neuroinformatics at ETH Zurich on unsupervised learning.
Experience:
Currently I'm a junior group leader at the Max Planck Institute for Brain Research in Frankfurt am Main (Germany) in the department of Gilles Laurent. Before, I was a postdoctoral scholar as well as a graduate student (in CNS) at Caltech. I remain affilated with Caltech as a Visiting Scientist in the Division of Biology. Before starting graduate school at Caltech (both during my undergrad studies and afterwards) I was working as a software engineering consultant for companies in the finance and retail industry. While I now spend most of my time doing research, occasionally I still do some consulting work.
My Erdoes number is 3 (me -> Harel -> McEliece -> Erdoes).
Current affiliation:
I'm part of the department of Neural Systems and Coding at MPI.
Other Collaborators:
Collaborators include Erin Schuman (Caltech/MPI), Ralph Adolphs (Caltech), Christof Koch (Caltech), Henry Lester (Caltech), Johannes Schwarz (Leipzig), Rodney Douglas (ETHZ), Wolfgang Einhaeuser (Marburg) and Jean-Jacques Slotine (MIT).
Previous academic affiliations include:
Caltech, Computation&Neural System Program
Caltech, Laboratory of Synaptic plasticity of Erin Schuman, where I did my PhD and postdoc.
Caltech, Computational Vision
Institute of Neuroinformatics, University/ETH Zurich
University of applied sciences rapperswil, switzerland
Previous professional/commerial affiliations include:
EAS Consulting GmbH, where I was a Partner/co-Founder.
NCR (Switzerland) AG, where I worked as a software engineer.
Young Liberals of Switzerland (JFS), where I was serving as IO (International Officer, an elected position)
