About
Tom works as a Senior Software Engineer for the Howard Hughes Medical Institute at the Janelia Research Campus. As the main developer of the open source neuron reconstruction and analysis platform CATMAID he tries to provide tools to advance the field of neuroscience in collaboration with many labs.

All data created in this context is held and maintained by PostgreSQL, which has been in use for this project for almost ten years.
