Currently, I am a Research Associate at the MPIA, Heidelberg, working for the PACS-Instrument of the future Herschel Observatory. My PhD-Thesis 'Identification of Sources in MAMBO 1.2 mm Deep Fields' I did in the Infrared/Submillimeter Group of MPE, Garching. The aim of my thesis was the identification of faint mm galaxies by using cm-/mm-interferometry in combination with deep optical/near-infrared imaging, followed by multi-object optical and long-slit near-infrared spectroscopy of counterparts of MAMBO 1.2 mm sources near the NTT Deep Field.

    Blog

    Since November 2007 I am part of the astronomical Blog KOSMOLOGS. In the section "Galaxienentwicklung",  I am reporting about new discoveries, commenting exciting images and writing about general issues related to galaxies and galaxy evolution.
