I received my PhD in Psychology from the University of Mannheim in 2013, at the Laboratory for Clinical Psychophysiology. During my postdoctoral training at the German Center for Neurodegenerative Diseases (DZNE) in Magdeburg and at the University of Groningen (Netherlands), I received several research grants from the European Social Funds (ESF) and the German Research Foundation (DFG).
My research centers around time perception, spatial cognition and body representations, as well as the effects of healthy and pathological aging on these cognitive domains. I use a wide range of methods, including virtual reality (VR), eye-tracking, psychophysical and -physiological techniques, electro-encephalography (EEG), transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI).
Since October 2021, I lead a research group at the Department of Biological Psychology and Neuroergonomics, focusing on age-related changes in the interaction between time and space perception in virtual environments.
I am also a passionate fiction writer. My first novel Post Mortem was published in 2018 at Periplaneta (Berlin).
