Computational neuroscientist working in the Bay Area. Previously in academic research modelling brain activity with large systems of delay-differential equations, and developing Bayesian methods for parameter inference. I think programming is an art that complements mathematics.

I am proficient in C++, Matlab, and Python, occasionally enjoy a bit of JavaScript, and consider bash and LaTeX necessary evils.

I think you only truly understand something if you are able to do it differently. So go on and reinvent the wheel, not to claim that you did, but to learn what makes or breaks them.
