Areas of responsibility
My main tasks are managing and developing the infrastructure of the morphology lab, organizing lab operation, and supporting lab users in their research projects. I also carry out my own research projects and contribute to the projects of others as part of collaborations.
Research interests
The focus of my research is on the ontogeny, functional morphology, and biomechanics of frogs. I am particularly interested in the functional adaptations to different locomotor modes such as jumping, burrowing or swimming that have evolved over time. I am also interested in morphological methods, the possibilities they offer, and how they can be used creatively for new research questions and projects.
