Status:

Postdoctoral Associate, working with Anthony Gonzalez on observational cosmology related to the morphology of galaxies at intermediate and high redshifts.

Education:

University of Basle, Switzerland, Ph.D. 2006
University of Vienna, Austria, Master's degree 2003

Mission Statement:

My research aims to understand the cosmological mechanisms by which galaxies assemble and evolve in the Universe.
In particular, I focus on hotly debated evolutionary challenges of late-type galaxies.

Fields of Interest and Research:

• Formation of structures in galaxies
  
• Morphological evolution of galaxies
  
• Stellar populations and the interstellar medium in galaxies
  
• Influence of the Dark matter on the morphology of galaxies
  
• Distribution of galactic habitable zones in galaxies
  

Teaching

Current Studies:

Observational Cosmology:

• Morphological Transformations of Galaxies
• Evolution of Disk-Dominated Galaxies
• AGNs in Early-Type Galaxies
