Speaker: Dr. Jernej Zupanc
Dr. Jernej Zupanc is the founder of Seyens Ltd. His goal is to help scientists effectively communicate their ideas and findings and make an impact with their research. Communication and teaching are his professional passions, bordering on obsessions. He reads and studies eclectically and is always looking for approaches from different ﬁelds that can be easily applied by scientists. He distills the principles and practices into easy to understand and fun learning experiences. Time is our most valuable resource and he wants the time spent in his training to be the best investment a scientist can make. He has a PhD (2011) and was a PostDoc in computer science, is a Fulbright alumnus and a published photographer. Previously, he worked as the head of computer vision at a startup, as a project evaluator for the European Commission, and as a grant writer.
