About Me

I have always been fascinated by understanding how systems work, especially biological systems such as ecosystems or organisms. I studied at the University of Bonn, where I earned a Bachelor's degree in Biology, followed by a Master's degree in Organismic Biology, Evolutionary Biology and Palaeobiology. During my studies, I learned programming, pipeline development, and handling and analyzing genomic data of various organisms.

Currently, I am pursuing my PhD at the intersection of biomedicine and bioinformatics at the Systems Medicine department of the DZNE.

At GHGA, I am involved in standardization and harmonization of data and metadata and responsible for developing and maintaining the GHGA metadata model.
