Martin Pinzger is a Full Professor holding the Chair of Software Engineering at the
Alpen-Adria Universität Klagenfurt, Austria. He is leading the
Software Engineering Research Group and is currently also serving as the head of the
Institute of Informatics Systems. Martin Pinzger received a MSc (Dipl. Ing.) in 2001 and PhD (Dr. techn.) in 2005 in informatics from the Vienna University of Technology, both with distinction. He was a Postdoc at the University of Zurich and an Assistant Professor at the Delft University of Technology from which he received tenure in 2012. His research interests are in software engineering with a focus on
software evolution, software quality, mining software repositories, software visualization, software design, and empirical studies in software engineering. In 2012, he won a prestigious
NWO Vidi grant for his research proposal on recording and analysis of fine-grained code changes. In 2013, he received an
