Hello! 

My name is Thomas Depian and I am originally from South Tyrol and currently based in Vienna.

I am a PhD student in the Algorithms and Complexity Group at TU Wien, supervised by Martin Nöllenburg and Robert Ganian. My research interests lie in intersection between parameterized complexity, graph drawing, and computational geometry. The PhD position is funded through the WWTF project on Parameterized Graph Drawing, which aims to apply well-established tool from parameterized complexity to central problems in graph drawing and visualization.

I enjoy working on tough problems — especially when they relate to real-world challenges. What motivates me most is finding elegant solutions to complex questions, ideally with both theoretical depth and some practical relevance.
