Hi! I'm Daniel

I am a postdoctoral researcher at Helmholtz Munich, building machine learning models that push the boundaries of medical imaging. My work spans self-supervised learning, dynamic imaging, and domain adaptation, with a focus on making models robust enough for real clinical use. I care about steering machine learning toward meaningful, real-world benefit.
