Education:

2015-2018: Bachelor in Physics at University of Southern Denmark (SDU)

2018-2020: Masters in Physics at University of Southern Denmark (SDU)

2020-2023: Ph.D. in Physics at Universität Oldenburg

Research:

My research interests cover proteins and amino acids’ interaction with substrates such as graphene

Furthermore I am involved in projects on the protein Cryptochrome, in more speicfic I  am interested in the light interaction of the FAD co-factor and the molecular dynamics of Cryptochromes as well as their mutations.

Events

I was co-organiser of the international student competition PLANCKS 2019
