 Edoardo is the one of the principal developers of Nemos, a package for statistical modeling of neural activity.  He earned his Ph.D. in Neuroscience from the Italian Institute of Technology in Genova, under the guidance of Valter Tucci. Before joining the Flatiron institute as a data scientist, he worked as a postdoc in Cristina Savin's lab at NYU's Center for Neural Science where he developed statistical methods for the analysis of neural spike trains during naturalistic behavior.

 Billy Broderick received his Ph.D. from NYU's Center for Neural Science, where he was advised by Eero Simoncelli and Jon Winawer. During his Ph.D., he studied how vision changes across the visual field using fMRI, psychophysics, and computational models. Before that, he worked as a research assistant at Duke University, spent a year at South China Normal University in Guangzhou, China as a [Luce Scholar](http://www.hluce.org/lsprogram.aspx), and got his B.A. in neuroscience and mathematics at Oberlin College

 Caitlin received her B.S. in Computer Science and Statistics from UNC Chapel Hill. During this time she worked as an Undergraduate Research Assistant in the lab of Dr. Adam Hantman - where she helped to develop software tools for calcium imaging analysis and automated behavioral classification. She is also the co-developer of fastplotlib, a cutting-edge scientific visualization library. Caitlin will begin pursuing her PhD in Electrical and Computer Engineering this coming Fall at Duke University in the lab of Dr. John Pearson.

 Sarah Jo supports and develops open-source software for the center and with the Statistical Analysis of Neural Data group. She received her Ph.D. in Neuroscience from Princeton University working with Carlos Brody and Nathaniel Daw, where she studied neural mechanisms of cognition in rodents using experimental methods, statistical analysis, and computational models. Prior to her Ph.D., she worked as a research assistant at Indiana University and got her B.S. in Physics with a minor in Mathematics from Bethel University in Minnesota.

 Guillaume Viejo joined the Center for Computational Neuroscience as a data scientist, where he focuses on developing software for analyzing neurophysiological data. He holds a Ph.D. in computational neuroscience from the Institute of Intelligent Systems and Robotics at the Pierre and Marie Curie University in Paris, France. After completing his doctorate, Guillaume worked as a postdoctoral fellow at the Montreal Neurological Institute, where he studied the head-direction system (also known as the brain’s compass) in rodents.
