I am a Postdoctoral Researcher at TU Dresden, where I specialize in applying advanced mathematical modeling to understand complex biological systems, particularly in the fields of cancer research.
Just wrapped up two inspiring weeks in Florida for #MathOnco25 and the IMO Workshop at @moffittnews.bsky.social - made possible by a generous travel award from the organizers.
Incredible science, great people, and a community that keeps pushing boundaries.

I'm super happy and honored to be nominated for the Deutscher Studienpreis (German Thesis Award) by @koerber-ip.bsky.social for my PhD thesis on mathematical modeling of the impact of tumor heterogeneity on cancer evolution!

I'm looking forward to meeting the other nominees at the final in Berlin!

Today the Royal Society will meet to discuss “Fellows’ behaviour”. Without doubt the fellow they will primarily be discussing is Elon Musk.
The behaviour may range from his public dissemination of unfounded conspiracy theories to his attacks on the science

Can moving government jobs revitalize struggling regions? I explore this question in my new @nberpubs.bsky.social working paper, „The Potential of Public Employment Reallocation as a Place-Based Policy.“ 🧵(1/5)
