About me
I have completed my Bachelor and Master degree in geosciences at the University of Münster with a concentration on isotope geochemistry. I am currently working as a PhD student in TRR 170 project B6.
My main research interests are
- the accretion history of Mars and Earth
- the origin and implications of the NC-CC isotope dichotomy
- the genetic heritage and chronology of (ungrouped) iron meteorites.
