After my postdoc, I traded experiments for explanations! Now, I coordinate communication for a scientific project, making complex ideas accessible for users and patients. I’m excited to bring this passion to Pint of Science and look forward to making science more engaging—one pint at a time!

I am a medical technologist turned molecular biologist, currently pursuing my PhD at the DKFZ. Growing up, science in tv shows and pop culture made complex concepts more fun and engaging (and inspired me to pursue this career path)! I’m excited to do the same through Pint of Science Heidelberg!

Brain cancer researcher, people-person, and science fan. I joined Pint of Science to share cool discoveries with even cooler crowds (and to turn every pub into a mini science party). Ready to bring energy, curiosity, and a bit of chaos to the next festival!
