I am a Post-doctoral researcher working at the INRES Horticultural Science department of the University of Bonn. My scientific focus is the dormancy stage in temperate fruit and nut trees. I am particularly interested in bud and tree physiology during dormancy as well as in dormancy modelling (chill and heat quantification). Along the same lines, I focus my research on climate-related assessments under future scenarios. Finally, I am also interested in studying tree physiology regarding fruit and nut production.
