About

I am a postdoctoral researcher at the Developmental Computational Psychiatry Lab at the Department for Psychiatry and Psychotherapy at the University of Tübingen, Germany. I am using real-time functional magnetic resonance imaging (rt-fMRI) to study the impact of endogenous dopamine fluctuations on decision-making processes.

Previously, I was a doctoral researcher at the Translational Social Neuroscience Lab at the University of Würzburg, Germany. For my dissertation, I investigated the computational and neural mechanisms underlying how humans resolve approach-avoidance conflicts in social and non-social contexts, employing computational modeling and 7-Tesla fMRI. I was member of the RTG2660: Approach-Avoidance that is funded by the German Research Foundation.

Apart from research, I am passionate about sustainability, food, and various other ways to increase physical and mental wellbeing.
