About me

I am a postdoctoral researcher and lecturer in the Division of Clinical Physiology.

Research

My research focuses on the cardiovascular system, in particular on the regulation of blood volume and hemoglobin mass as well as on the regulation of skeletal muscle in health, disease and under extreme physiological conditions.

Teaching

My teaching activities mainly cover the Bachelor's degree programs in Nursing, Physiotherapy, Occupational Therapy and Biomedical Analysis. I am also course leader for the course "Nuclear Medicine Diagnostics" and a stand-alone course called "Statistical Methods with R".
