Markus Wenzel Email & Phone Number

Dr. Markus Wenzel is a senior scientist in the Applied Machine Learning Group at the AI department of Fraunhofer HHI in Berlin. He is particularly interested in applying machine learning to the life sciences and medicine - see, e.g., his recent contributions to explainable AI for protein language models (https://doi.org/10.1093/bioinformatics/btae031), and to deep learning in histopathology (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.media.2023.102809) and dermatology (https://arxiv.org/abs/2410.05114).Currently, he is involved in the AI/AR Microscope project (https://www.hhi.fraunhofer.de/en/departments/ai/projects/ai-ar-microscope.html; with Fraunhofer USA Center Mid-Atlantic CMA) and the Testing and Experimentation Facility for Health AI and Robotics (https://www.tefhealth.eu/). Dr. Wenzel received his PhD (summa cum laude) from Technische Universität Berlin, for research on brain-computer interfacing, completed graduate studies (with distinction) in neurobiology, bioinformatics and biophysics at Albert-Ludwigs-Universität Freiburg, and has conducted research at École Normale Supérieure de Lyon, the Berlin Institute for Medical Systems Biology, the Bernstein Center for Computational Neuroscience, Technische Universität Berlin, and Fraunhofer HHI.
