I don’t know these people, but social distancing rules imply I can’t make a photo of my PhD students. (Source bbolender (pixabay.com))

I really enjoy working together with emerging scientists on the answers of current scientific questions. Below is an overview of the PhD-students and postdocs I’m supervising and have supervised. Please only contact me with interest in a PhD-studentship with me in case you can bring your own funding, as I don’t have money.
