Teaching
Statement of teaching
The continuous development of my mentoring skills is a major career goal of mine. I am devoted to the education of the next generation of scientists. During the last 15 years, I have continuously contributed to the curriculum as a tutor, assistant, or lecturer. I designed, implemented, and evaluated practical courses and supervised the research projects of more than twenty Bachelor and Master Students. During these years, I highly appreciated the value of sharing knowledge with younger peers, some of whom joined my research endeavours and proved to be great collaborators. I strengthened my mentoring and teaching skills by completing a program of advanced studies in academic teaching (CAS HE UniBern). After completing my Habilitation at the University of Bern in October 2024, I was awarded the academic title of Lecturer (Privatdozent).
