Affiliation: Imaging Platform, Max Planck Institute for Heart and Lung Research

Dr. Kenny Mattonet is the head of the Imaging Platform at the Max Planck Institute for Heart and Lung Research in Bad Nauheim, Germany. His team provides access to light and electron microscopy, as well as small animal micro-computed tomography (µCT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). He is particularly focused on making complex imaging techniques more accessible. To this end, his research emphasizes the development of automated imaging and image analysis pipelines. Dr. Mattonet earned his Ph.D. from the Stainier lab, where he researched early hematovascular development in the zebrafish embryo. Before that, he completed his undergraduate studies in biochemistry and biology at the universities in Hamburg and Frankfurt.
