This is my personal home page. You are welcome to surf around and please feel free to contact me. I am a scientist working at the Max-Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics, near Munich. My research is focusing on the investigation of the distant universe. In the last few years, I specialized on the exploration of the galaxies that host the most energetic events in the universe: the Gamma-Ray Bursts. I live downtown Munich, in a very nice apartment by the Olympiapark. Lots of trees around and a beautiful view.
