My research targets astrophysical particles of the highest energies. I specialize in the radio detection of neutrinos above PeV energies. With my background in radio detection of cosmic rays and software development, I push for the next generation radio experiment in the polar regions.
I am also affiliated with the cosmic ray project of the LOFAR telescope where we detect cosmic rays and lightning.
