I love sports, veggies and science,
as roadbiking runner I grow my lung volume, as gardener I grow eggplants and as a scientist in the field of immunology I grow cells.
With passion you can grow a lot.
Currently working on my climbing skills and at the Lebniz Institute for Immunotherapy.

I’m an (epi-)genome engineering enthusiast performing a PhD to better understand immune cell behavior. In my free time I like to dance, climb and have some beers in good company!
If you join our PoS this year, feel free to come and ask me about genome editing and its implications in society :)
