Hi! My name is Eric Zimmermann and I am a research assistant at the Institute for Visual & Analytic Computing headed by Prof. Dr. Stefan Bruckner at the University of Rostock, Germany.

Before I was a research and teaching assistant in the group Mathematical Geometry Processing headed by Prof. Dr. Konrad Polthier at the Institute of Mathematics, Freie Universität Berlin, Germany. During this time I was a member of the Collaborative Reseaerch Center (CRC) Transregio 109 dealing with structural and computational aspects of point set surfaces. I received the degree Dr. rer. nat. in Mathematics in 2024 with my dissertation titled "Point Clouds Between Local and Global Approaches".

My reserarch interests connect Mathematics, Visualization, and Computer Science. I am fascinated by structural aspects found in differential geometry, discrete mathematics, and topology as well as GPU accelerated programming.
