  • Research background: Theoretical and applied ecology, conservation, and evolution in freshwater and terrestrial ecosystems. Observational and experimental studies, in both field and laboratory settings, to better understand the interactions between multiple abiotic and biotic stressors and structural and functional responses in communities. Particular competence in the analysis of large spatial and temporal datasets using advances statistical modelling approaches
  • Since 2020 : Postdoc, RPTU University of Kaiserslautern-Landau, Institute for Environmental Sciences, in SystemLink. Topic: Effect of micro-pollutants on aquatic terrestrial interface.
  • 2017 – 2020: Postdoc, University of Applied Sciences Trier, Environmental-Campus Birkenfeld and University of Duisburg-Essen.
