I'm a computational biologist / bioinformatician based in Jena, Germany. I recently completed my PhD at Friedrich Schiller Universität Jena (Population Ecology Group), studying neo-sex chromosome evolution and dosage compensation in Vandiemenella viatica grasshoppers using multi-omics approaches. I'm now a postdoc at the Friedrich-Loeffler-Institut, working on bioinformatics for microbial pathogenicity.
