Institute of Finance and Statistics, University of Bonn 

My research interests focus on functional data analysis, semi- and nonparametric statistics, longitudinal data analysis, mathematical and computational statistics. I pursue an application-oriented research approach focusing on actual real data problems that are both statistically interesting and practically relevant. Due to my research in functional data analysis, I have a particular interest in high-dimensional human movement senor and video data problems. Last but not least, I also have a very personal motivation for working with sport science data as my pre-academic life took mostly place in the judo dojos around the world (3 times German Judo Champion, multiple German and European Club Championships with TSV Abensberg)
