Prof. Dr. Sabine Fischer

My research focus is on spatial interactions in biological systems at different length scales. For this, I apply and adjust techniques from data analysis and mathematical modelling such as image analysis, spatial statistics, agent-based modelling and machine learning. I enjoy working in an interdisciplinary environment and utilising the different perspectives for solving interesting research questions.
All projects in my group are application- and data-driven and based on close collaborations with experts in the respective field.
