Short Biography

In October 2019, I started working as a PhD student in the group of Prof. Leonhard Held. Previously, I obtained a Master's degree in Biostatistics from the University of Zurich.
My research interests are still developing, but broadly speaking encompass the foundations and applications of Bayesian statistics. Currently, my PhD research focuses on studying statistical methods for the analysis and design of replication studies.
