Michael Niemeyer
I am a senior research scientist at Google working on 3D computer vision and generative modeling. Prior to joining Google, I was a PhD student at the Max Planck Insitute for Intelligent Systems supervised by Andreas Geiger. As an undergraduate student, I studied Mathematics at the University of Cologne (Germany) and computer science as the Master's at the University of St Andrews (UK).

Feel free to use this website as a template! It is fully responsive and very easy to use and maintain as it uses a python script that crawls your bib files to automatically add the papers and talks. If you find it helpful, please add a link to my website - I will also add a link to yours (if you want). Checkout the github repository for instructions on how to use it.
