I build pipelines and tools to make sense of large-scale genomic data — from wild maize relatives to fungal pathogens to horned melon. My work sits at the intersection of population genetics, comparative genomics, and computational biology.

Current focus  →  Cucumis metuliferus genomics @ Weigel Lab, MPI Tübingen
PhD            →  Teosinte genomics, Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf
