Biography and Research Interest
* Studies of biology at the University of Freiburg (Germany) with emphasis on developmental biology, genetics and zoological systematics (1993-1999)
* Diploma thesis on smad genes in zebrafish early patterning (1999), Freiburg
* Graduate student with Dirk Meyer at University of Freiburg pursuing my studies on the intra-cellular TGFß signal transduction via Smads and FoxH1 in zebrafish
* Ph.D. received in July 2002
* Postdoc with William S. Talbot at Stanford School of Medicine (2002-2004) conducting a genetic screen for mutations that disrupt myelination
* Postdoc with Matthias Hammerschmidt at the Max-Planck-Institute of Immunology (Freiburg) working on pituitary gland development in zebrafish (2004-2008)
* Tenured senior scientist in the lab of Matthias Hammerschmidt at Cologne University since 2008 pursuing my studies on the endocrine system plus embarking on the development of the zebrafish skeleton

My current research aims to decipher the cellular and molecular machinery that constructs and maintains the segmented backbone in teleosts using the zebrafish as a model.
