Personal information
Biography
I studied biology (ecology/animal physiology) at the University of Leipzig and obtained my PhD in ecology at the University of Greifswald, Germany.
In the past I coordinated the species action plan for the Eurasian otter (Lutra lutra) in Saxony (Germany), took part in or led several national funded research projects about landscape fragmentation, forest conversion, climate change mitigation in baltic lowland forests or as well as the National Biodiversity Strategy of Germany, and managed the EU FP5 FRAP project (http://www.frap-project.net). Currently I am employed as researcher and scientific project manager of the EU FP7 project SCALES (http://www.scales-project.net) at the Department of Conservation Biology of the Helmholtz Centre for Environmental Research in Leipzig (Germany).
My research mainly focuses on population ecology and conservation of larger vertebrates (birds and mammals), and how they are influenced by changes in landscape structure and land use activities.
