Biography

Magdalena Schneider joined Janelia Research Campus as a Theory Fellow in September 2022. With a multidisciplinary background in mathematics and biophysics, the aim of her research is the development of theoretical concepts and analysis methods for biological data. The main focus of her current work is the development of machine learning methods for transforming images obtained from various imaging techniques (in particular, FIB-SEM and cryo-EM) into one another, with the aim of combining the unique advantages from each technique in order to gain a comprehensive understanding of the true underlying cellular structures.

Before joining Janelia, Magdalena worked as a postdoc at TU Wien, Austria, in the field of single molecule localization microscopy (SMLM), where she also completed her PhD thesis in the Biophysics group of Gerhard Schütz. During this time, she advanced and developed new experimental and analytical strategies for studying oligomerization and nanoclustering of proteins via (cryo-)SMLM techniques.
