Robert Casties received an MSc (Diplom) in Physics from the University of Hamburg for a thesis in experimental high-energy physics at DESY. He then continued his Phd (Dr. phil. nat) in History and Philosophy of Science at the University of Bern with a thesis on the communication of knowledge in scientific articles on the cold-fusion debate of the 1990s.
He joined the MPIWG in 2002 as part of the newly created project group for information technology and worked in the creation of most of the institute's digital research projects since then. His interests are in developing and applying digital solutions to help research in the history of science in dialog with scholars and building on principles of open data, shared standards, and sustainable technologies. He is also active in the DH-Tech special interest group of the Association of Digital Humanities Organisations facilitating exchange and shared best practices among technical practitioners in the Digital Humanities and in the Technical Review Committee of IIIF, the International Image Interoperability Framework.
Robert is a member of the Institute’s Digital Humanities Team.
