Teaching diatoms


Our methods using BIIGLE as an online annotation software lend themselves to teaching.

I have taught diatom identification for ecological purposes at the University of Duisburg-Essen since 2020.

With Michael Kloster I have lead several workshops within the International Diatom Symposium, German Protistology Meetings,… The coming year 2026 we will have a workshop on diatom identification and the use of the results for diatom deep learning applications. Stay tuned!

Since 2025 I have given two courses (one introductory course and one advanced course) with a Peruvian firm.
