Niels Wessel

Professor for Biostatistics and Epidemiology at MSB

Niels Wessel is a professor for biostatistics at the Medical School Berlin and is affiliated with the department of physics at the Humboldt University Berlin. His research focuses on biomedical data science including nonlinear dynamics and modeling of biosignals.

Dominik Kranz

PhD Student

Dominik studied biophysics at the Humboldt-University and is now working on his PhD regarding autonomous nervous system health, utilising modern methods like neural networks and data coming from wearable devices.

Hua Qin

Guest Researcher

Hua finished her doctoral study in medicine at Charité-Universitätsmedizin Berlin in 2022. Her research focus is on associations between autonomic functions assessed by heart rate variability and cardiovascular consequences of sleep disorders. She holds certificates for registered polysomnographic technologists.

Jan F. Kraemer

Guest Researcher

Jan has a diploma in informatics, and was working for our group for 10 years, developing new methods for analysing ECG data. His work included, among other things, deriving breathing curves from ECG and identifying sleep apneas. Now he is working for AI-SKILLS, but still holds a guest researcher position, helping with study evaluation and supervising student thesises.

Karsten Berg

PhD Student

Karsten has a masters degree in physics and is now working on his Doctoral degree regarding the coupling of different biosignals, i.e. blood pressure, respiration and ECG and how they influence the human homeostasis. You can find him cycling, climbing hiking or acting.

Oruc Kahriman

Master student

After spending some time in the industry, Oruç came back to the Humbolt-University to finish his masters degree in physics. His work involves applying machine learning methods to analyse HRV from raw, unfiltered ECG data. He mainly uses RNN and transformer architectures and tries to emulate past results from studies that used classical methods.
