During my scientific work, I have worked with various study designs, survey methods, structural and process analyses, and evaluative evidence synthesis, both in a supporting and leading role. With my experience in quality and risk management as well as scientific research, I am happy to support you in bringing your theses to a successful conclusion in a methodologically sound, efficient, and goal-oriented manner.
