Philipp Kaniuth is a postdoctoral researcher at the Chair of Clinical Psychology and Behavioural Neuroscience at TUD Dresden University of Technology. He is interested in representational systems and how affective disorders spread through social networks. In his work, he utilises advanced statistical methods and relies on computational techniques as well as big data analyses. Alongside his postdoctoral work, Philipp trains to become a licensed psychotherapist (in cognitve-behavioural therapy).
