Summary
Tomas Fiers is a computational neuroscience postdoctoral researcher based in Ghent with 11 years of engineering and research experience bridging signal processing, neuroinformatics, and biomedical engineering. After a PhD in computational neuroscience at the University of Nottingham and prior internships in signal processing and software engineering, he now focuses on building tools and analyses that translate neural data into interpretable models. His background in both computer science/electrical engineering and biomedical engineering gives him a rare fluency across hardware-aware signal processing and computational modeling. Tomas combines academic rigor with practical product-minded experience from startups and industry collaborations (imec, KU Leuven, VIB), and maintains a public portfolio of projects at tomasfiers.net. Colleagues describe him as someone who enjoys turning messy experimental data into reproducible, open workflows—often revealing insights that aren’t obvious from raw signals alone.
