Dr. Mohammad Saeed Zarzor, a PhD researcher from our BRAINIACS team, has successfully defended his doctoral thesis. Saeed’s research focused on developing a computer model to show how cells influence the folding of a developing brain’s surface. His work offers new insights into how our brains take shape. This research was conducted under the supervision of Dr.-Ing. Silvia Budday.

A big thank you to his thesis committee: Prof. Dr. med. Ingmar Blümcke, Prof. Dr.-Ing. habil. Paul Steinmann, and Prof. Johannes Weickenmeier for their time and valuable discussions. We also want to thank the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) – German Research Foundation for their funding support.
