Research activities

My main field of interest is neutrino physics, in particular neutrino astronomy. I am a member of the ANTARES and KM3NeT collaborations. In ANTARES, I am a member of the experiment’s steering committee and institute board. My task is to coordinate the development and maintenance of data analysis tools. In addition, I co-coordinate the astrophysics working group. In KM3NeT I lead the machine-learning working group.

Previously, I worked in heavy-ion and hadron physics as a member of the HADES collaboration at TUM and GSI/FAIR, Darmstadt, and in computational astrophysics at MPA, Garching.
