CV

Oliver Schrader studied Philosophy (B.A. 2016, M.A. 2018) and Latin Studies (B.A. 2017) at the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München with a one-year stay at the Università degli Studi Roma Tre. During this time, the history of ideas in the Middle Ages emerged as a focus of interest, with particular emphasis on the reception of antiquity (Isidore of Seville, John of Salisbury, Heidelberg Early Humanism). Subsequent studies in computer science and statistics (B.Sc. 2022) led to full-time employment as a software developer in Munich (2021 to 2023). Humanities and computer science finally came together in the DFG edition project “Conciliator”, for which Oliver Schrader first took on a position as a research associate at the University Hospital Bonn (Institute for Medical Humanities) and then at the CCeH.
