Nicholas L. Turner is a Ph.D. candidate advised by H. Sebastian Seung in the Computer Science department at Princeton University. His work has helped to improve neural circuit reconstruction from electron microscopy (EM) volumes, and includes careful study of the resulting large scale reconstructions. His software has also been a key component towards producing some of the largest EM circuit reconstructions to date. Before his graduate career, he received his bachelor’s degree from Stanford University in Psychology, and completed an Intramural Research Training Award Fellowship at the NIH.
