I am interested in automated handling, imaging and image analysis of biological samples including invertebrates and zebrafish embryos. The focus is on developing custom imaging systems for high-throughput screening, classification and feature detection. Furthermore, My research focuses on developing innovative methods for detecting microplastics in aquatic environments as well as on monitoring ethanol, xylol and formaldehyde gas in lab environments. In all projects I follow an open science approach: technologically advanced imaging systems are developed as low-cost DIY solutions to be also applicable in the global south.
