Alexandra Diehl

Position: Associate Professor
Categories: Mentors 2026/2027
Location: University of Southern Denmark

Background

I am an Associate Professor at SDU with over 15 years of experience in data science with focus on data visualization, visual analytics, machine learning, and interdisciplinary data‑driven research. My work spans uncertainty visualization, geospatial analytics, weather forecasting, and AI‑supported behavioral analysis.

Motivation

As someone new to Denmark, I see this as a meaningful way to connect with the Danish scientific community. I enjoy mentoring early‑career researchers and have co‑supervised PhD students and numerous master’s projects across Europe. I also organized in the past several meet‑ups at IEEE VIS with a focus on diversity and career paths and currently run the Dive Coding Café at SDU with a focus on diversity and inclusivity.
