I’m a researcher working in gamma-ray astronomy, a branch of the wider field of high energy astrophysics. The theme underlying my research interests is the quest to understand the nature and origin of the energetic cosmic rays permeating our universe and continuously bombarding Earth.

I am leading a DFG-funded Emmy Noether group at ECAP focussed on: Unveiling the Origin of Galactic Cosmic Rays: Exploring Pulsar Environments at the Highest Energies.
