WELCOME
Welcome to my website where you can find infos on my research and other interests
Research
My overarching aim is to increase our understanding on biodiversity, ecosystem functions and cross-ecosystem linkages.
Biodiversity
Beyond aquatic and terrestrial ecosystem boundaries
My research focuses on the diverse life strategies and interactions of microbes, plants and animals in aquatic and terrestrial habitats. I investigate the community ecology and food web dynamics of these fascinating organisms to gain a better understanding of the complex interactions between species and their environment.
Ecosystems
A holistic perspective
In my work I try to apply a holistic perspective to better understand ecosystem dynamics. I study the interactions between different species and their environment to investigate how ecosystems are connected and what factors drive ecosystem functions beyond ecosystem boundaries.
Conservation & restoration
For a sustainable future
Protecting biodiversity and preserving habitats are central drivers of my research. Through my work, I aim to raise awareness about the importance of biodiversity and promote measures for the conservation and restoration of nature.
