Research statement
My research focuses on studying the nature of aggressive squamous cell carcinoma which develops especially in patients with recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa. In particular, I am working on the development of an immunetherapy that exploits a pre-existing immunity against common childhood pathogens and redirects it againts tumor cells.
Personal interests
I enjoy being outside in nature, preferably in the mountains. In addition to my scientific education I am a passionate musician and zither player.
