I’m a Ph.D. student at the university of Münster. I study the development of the wrapping glial cell in the nervous system of the fruitfly. As a biologist, I learned how valuable discussions with and lectures from more experienced microscopists are since preparing biological samples for TEM can be tricky. I liked the idea of starting the DGE young microscopists to facilitate the entry into the EM community for students.
I am currently a postdoc at EMAT (Antwerp, Belgium), focusing on in-situ electron microscopy and -tomography of beam-sensitive materials. Before, I obtained my Ph.D. in Physics at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), with a focus on SEM methods. Providing a platform for a vivid scientific and personal exchange among early-career microscopists in the DGE and with international students was my main motivation to initiate the DGE Young Microscopists in 2022.
