Hi, I am Pascal

Pascal Wenker

Senior Data Scientist / Data Engineer at inovex

I am a professional software developer and machine learning engineer. My main research area is artificial intelligence, with a focus on deep reinforcement learning. But I am also interested in other research fields, for example, (cognitive) neuroscience & learning theory: I love learning ! In my free time, I enjoy a mix of hobbies, including playing chess, jazz piano, reading books and practicing mixed martial arts.
