Research and Interests
- energy landscapes of biopolymer models
- computational chemistry
- simplified protein models
- protein structure prediction
- constraint programming
- object oriented programming
- I am one of the distributors of the Energy Landscape Library (ELL) and the BIU library.
- My CPSP-tools enable studies for HP-type protein models in complex 3D-lattices.
- The LatPack is made for studies in arbitrary lattice protein models.
- LatFit allows for lattice approximations/fits or real protein structures in PDB format.
- To avoid ugly learning by trying: my HowTo-site.
- For Constraint Programming I am using and extending the Gecode C++ library.
- For some usefull free tools have a look here.
- Bela Bender from IWW - University of Freiburg (Germany) on the mapping of tree growth onto weather data.
- Fabrizio Costa from University of Freiburg (Germany) on machine learning in chemistry.
- Alessandro Dal Palu from University of Parma (Italy) on the application of constraint programming in lattice protein models.
- Christoph Flamm and Alexander Ullrich from University of Vienna (Austria) and Leipzig (Germany) on graph grammars and their applications.
- Konstantin Klemm from University of Leipzig (Germany) on energy landscapes and their properties.
- Rhodri Saunders and Charlotte Deane from University of Oxford (UK) on co-translational folding of proteins.
- Kathleen Steinhöfel, Leonidas Kapsokalivas, and Dayem Ullah from King's College London (UK) on new folding simulation techniques for lattice protein models.
- Guido Tack from Saarland University (Germany) to integrate AND/OR search into Gecode.
- Michael T. Wolfinger from University of Vienna (Austria) about energy landscapes of lattice proteins.
- Stephané Zampelli from Université Catholique de Louvain (Belgium) about CP-based graph matching algorithms.
- I have been supported and part of the EU project EMBIO working on energy landscapes of lattice proteins.
- Here is my list of publications.
- Also a list including my posters is available.
- An introductory talk on
Lattice proteins, CPSP approach, and applications I presented.
- At the Bioinformatics group at the
University Freiburg:
- I was responsible for the exercise course of the special lecture on 'Protein folding and energy landscapes' ( SS'09 ),
- as well as the exercise course of the 'Bioinformatics I' lecture ( SS'10 ).
- I was supervising a Java programming course about bioinformatics algorithms ( WS'09, '08, '07, '06 ) and a Perl course ( SS'08 )
- Further, I am the mentor of several theses and student projects.

About me ...
Currently, I am a PostDoc assistent at Prof. Backofen's
Bioinformatics group at the University of Freiburg,
Germany.
I was born and grew up in Erfurt. For my studies
at the Friedrich-Schiller-University Jena
I got my diploma in Bioinformatics March 2006.
In June 2011, I received my doctorate from the
Albert-Ludwigs-University Freiburg, Germany,
working at Prof. Backofen's Bioinformatics group.
Most important things? Mhh.. mails of course! ;)
Because they connect everything: friends, sports,
journeys and all the remaining stuff I love!
