I am an evolutionary and behavioural ecologist broadly interested in understanding the causes and consequences of phenotypic variation in behaviour, life-history and physiology across different hierarchical levels of organization. In my current postdoc with Anne Charmantier and Sandra Bouwhuis I focus on the evolutionary genetics of phenotypic plasticity using a long-term data set of common terns (Sterna hirundo) from the North Coast of Germany.
