I have two PhD students: Melanie Rothe and Nils Neumann.

If you have questions, please write me an Email and you will get an online or on-site appointment.

I am co-organizer of the conference in honor of Ernst Kuwert' 60th birthday, see this link here.

It takes place in Freiburg im Breigau, in the week of November 29 to December 03, 2021.

In fall 2021, our AG Seminar takes place at Tuesdays, 10.00 am.
