Clinician scientist with a passion for immunity and infectious diseases.

Digging into viral fitness is like entering a thrilling race against microscopic champions. I’m aiming to be the relentless contender, decoding their speedy maneuvers while striving to outpace their viral athleticism!

I joined the Schommers lab as a PhD student with a focus on molecular biology—where science meets precision, teamwork, and a touch of humor. It’s serious work, but if you can’t laugh at your 100th failed experiment, you’re not ready for the breakthrough that comes with the 101st—especially when you have a great team by your side!

I design precision biologics to outwit evasive disease biology. Think of me as closing the escape room—one evidence-based lock at a time.

From Sauerland hills to HIV thrills - science keeps things interesting.

With a background in microbiology, I have always enjoyed the small things in life - joining the Schommers Lab has deepened my fascination with HIV’s adaptability, making every day in the lab into an exciting puzzle to solve!

Besides sailing I put the FUN into Function of broadly neutralizing Antibodies!

Adding NK cells to targets like miles to my Strava.

Trust me, I’m a lab technician – I make precision look like magic

I joined the Schommers lab as a Postdoc in 2022 and currently playing ‘hide and seek’ with proviruses residing in the HIV latent reservoir. Besides playing this game in the lab, you will find me dancing Salsa and Bachata somewhere downtown, working on my DJing skills, or trying to see how much weight I can handle at the gym. As they said, you are the company you keep; just like the ever-evolving HIV, my interests keep changing, as I am now learning to make good cocktail mixes, and hopefully, will own a nice cocktail spot someday. Fingers crossed!

Lab technician life: My cells are my babies. And yes, I worry about them more than mothers do.

Med student exploring the potential of multispecific antibodies. Living in Germany's 'FC Region' is a great experience, even though playing soccer isn't really my thing; I'm more into exercising. Here's to a future where defeating cancer and HIV is as routine as smashing leg day.
