Laurens Bohlen

I am a Computational Biologist and Data Scientist based in Zurich, Switzerland. With a background in quantitative biology and a strong foundation in data science, I bring expertise in analyzing complex data sets and extracting meaningful insights. My passion lies in leveraging data-driven approaches to solve real-world problems. I have diverse experiences, including research, software development, and project management. In addition to my expertise, I am deeply committed to seamlessly integrating into new teams and positions. I am always eager to expand my skill set through continuous learning and professional development.

As a Project Manager at the University of Zurich's Art & Science department, I guided machine learning and computational biology, collaborating with experts to develop an interactive exhibition project called "Triggered by Motion," with exhibitions in Seoul, Bangalore, and Zernez.
As a Research Assistant at the Forensic Institute Zurich, I focused on leveraging machine learning to enhance crime investigation methodologies.
As a Teaching Assistant at the University of Zurich's Institute of Forensic Medicine, I was vital in supporting a lecture on "Interdisciplinary Research Methods in Computational Biology," which involved grading assignments and project reports and presentations.
Additionally, I gained valuable experience through various temporary and freelance roles over the years, further diversifying my skill set and professional background.

I completed my Master of Science in Quantitative Biology and Systems Biology with a 5.9 out of 6 (CH grade) grade at the University of Zurich. Before that, I earned my Bachelor of Science in Biology, achieving a 5 out of 6 (CH grade) at the University of Zurich.
