Iām an astrophysicist studying the magnetic activity of low-mass stars and how it interacts with their orbiting planets. I focus on how stellar magnetism shapes planetary environments, using optical, X-ray and radio signals to trace these interactions. My work combines time-domain observations from space telescopes like TESS and CHEOPS with physical modeling and statistical methods.
I hold a PhD in astrophysics from the Leibniz Institute for Astrophysics Potsdam, and worked as a postdoctoral researcher at the Netherlands Institute for Radio Astronomy (ASTRON). Currently, I hold a Max-Planck Research Group Leader position at the Max-Planck Institute for Solar System Research. Feel free to explore my CV or read more about my research and publications.
