Almar Klein

Almar Klein studied Electrical Engineering at the University of Twente. In his PhD he developed algorithms to study the motions of stent grafts in abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA), using ECG-gated CT data. During that time, he came in touch with Python as a tool for scientific computing. To be able to visualize the data and algorithm results, he started working on Visvis, a scientific visualization toolkit based on Python and OpenGL. After working on virtual/augmented reality with Cinoptics, he now works as a contractor for Continuum Analytics, and teaches scientific Python at the University of Twente. Almar is involved in the development of Imageio, Vispy, Bokeh, and the Intereractive Editor for Python (IEP).
