I hold the position of Associate Professor in the field of Analysis. My research focuses on partial differential equations and the calculus of variations.
I am particularly fascinated by the intricate connections between geometry, topology, and analysis, which manifest in the study of functionals such as Willmore or Helfrich for surfaces, as well as in the exploration of knot energies.
